Chapter 4 Installing the Cisco SCE 8000 Chassis
DC-Powered Systems
Note The DC supplies each have the provision for a dual connection to the power source in order to permit
high-power operation without exceeding current ratings. For the Cisco SCE 8000, it is not necessary to
connect both of these inputs to DC power sources; it is sufficient to connect only the '1' connections.
DC-input cable Accepts 2-14 AWG copper conductors. Actual size of the wire
needed is determined by the installer or local electrician.
Terminal block material rated at 150°C (302°F).
DC-input circuit breaker For multiple DC input power supplies, each DC input must be
protected by a dedicated two-pole circuit breaker or a fuse.
The circuit breaker or the fuse must be sized according to the power
supply input power rating and any local or national electrical code
requirements.
