2-14 Riverstone Networks RS 3000/3100/3200 Switch Router Getting Started Guide
Hardware Features Introduction
DC Power Supply
Warning Failure to provide a connection between the DC power supply and a reliable
earth ground can result in serious damage to the switch router and invalidate
your warranty.
The DC power supply provides enough current to operate a fully configured chassis. On the back end of the supply is
the three-terminal wiring block. See Figure 2-5.
Figure 2-5 DC power supply back side with wiring block
The DC power supply has a three-terminal wiring block consisting of a positive (+) terminal, marked 48V; a negative
(–) terminal, marked RTN; and a safety ground, marked GND. The DC supply is designed to be powered by a 48 Volt
DC source. Use 12-gauge to 14-gauge wire to connect the 48-Volt source to the router’s DC power supply. Use
12-gauge to 14-gauge wire for the safety ground.
Note The RS 3000, RS 3100 and RS 3200 do not have an on-off switch. When you
connect the power supply to a DC power source, the router is on.
Nota El RS Switch Router no cuenta con un interruptor de encendido-apagado. Al
conectar el suministro de energía DC a una toma de corriente, el RS Switch Router
estará encendido.
