Connecting DC Power to an MX10000
The overall process of bringing up a DC-powered chassis involves the proper cabling of the individual
power supplies, adding the power supplies to the chassis, and supplying power. The power-on sequence
can start incrementally with a single power supply, we recommended that you bring up an MX10000
system with at least three power supplies.
Each power supply input feed must be connected to a dedicated DC power source outlet.
Before you begin connecting power to the router, be sure you understand how to prevent electrostatic
discharge (ESD) damage. See “Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage” on page 343.
To connect DC power to a JNP10K-PWR-DC power supply, see “How to Install a JNP10K-PWR-DC Power
Supply” on page 220. To connect DC power to a JNP10K-PWR-DC2 power supply, see “How to Install a
JNP10K-PWR-DC2 Power Supply” on page 234.
