3.3 CONNECTIONS
The multiple output ports of the Central Power Hub each provide power at 12VDC; when pow-
ering a 12VDC device, you merely need to use a basic cable (part number: ACR1000-3PL-
CBL2M). However, if you need to power a 5VDC device, you must use a converter dongle (part
number: ACR1000-12V5-CBL2M).
3.3.1 CONNECTING A 12V DEVICE
Devices that require a 12VDC supply can be connected directly to a power port
using a simple link cable.
1 Connect the locking 3-pin plug at one end of the ACR1000-3PL-CBL2M
cable to the power input socket of the device - the lead is 2m (6.5 feet) in
length.
2 Connect the locking 3-pin plug at the other end of the cable to one of the
power output sockets on the rear panel of the Central Power Hub main
chassis.

3.3.2 DISCONNECTING A 3-PIN LOCKING PLUG
1 Use the management application to remove power from the required power outlet -
the green indicator must be off.
2 Grasp the outer body of the 3-pin plug.
3 Gently pull back the body of the outer plug. As the body of the plug slides back, it
will release from the socket and you can fully withdraw the whole plug.
