Important: Be sure to remove the appropriate amount of insulation from each wire. If you remove too
much insulation, exposed wire protruding from the DC plug can create an electrical hazard. If you do
not remove enough insulation, the wire might not make proper contact with the terminal.
2. Thread the exposed conductor ends of the wires through the opening in the lock assembly.
3. Insert each exposed conductor into the appropriate connector on the DC plug.
Insert a small flat-head screwdriver into the corresponding release hole on the DC plug to allow the
conductor to be freely inserted into the contact opening.
4. Snap the plug into the lock assembly.
Connecting DC power to the platform
Important: Be sure that the DC power source is off and the ground lug is connected to the ground terminal
before you connect the platform to the DC power source.
After you have assembled the DC input connector, you can connect the platform to the DC power source.
When you connect the DC power source, you should also follow the safety requirements defined for your
network operations center (NOC).
