Installing Directors into the EC-1700 Cabinet
Connecting MDS 9513 or MDS 9509 power
The EC-1700-C contains no PDUs. Power for the MDS 9513 or 9509 is
provided by connecting the MDS power cords directly to the
customer's facility power.
Order the same power cords you would normally order for
connecting the MDS 9513 or 9509 directors to the customer's facility
power for the country of destination.
◆
Each MDS 9513 requires 4 power cords for a fully loaded chassis
with full power redundancy.
◆
Each MDS 9509 requires 2 power cords per chassis.
Note:
See the full MDS power specifications in the MDS 9500 documentation
on the Cisco website at

Power cords for the MDS-9513s should be routed down the back of
the cabinet and either exit the cabinet at the lower rear of the cabinet
or, if on a raised floor into a small tile cut-out in an adjacent tile near
the rear of the cabinet, or down into a tile cut-out near the front of the
cabinet. See
as an example.
Alternatively, the power cords can be routed out the top of the
cabinet by removing one of the quick release perforated top panels.
MDS 9509 power cords should be routed to the front sides of the
cabinet and then either down or up and out of the cabinet.
