NOTE: Power cord for the ACX500 indoor routers are not shipped with the router. You need to
purchase the power cord separately.
To connect AC power to the router:
1. Locate the power cord, which should have a plug appropriate for your geographical location. See the
"ACX500 Router AC Power Cord Specifications" on page 70
2. Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist, and connect the other end of the strap to an ESD
grounding point.
3. Insert the appliance coupler end of the power cord into the appliance inlet on the power supply.
4. Insert the power cord plug into an external AC power source receptacle.
NOTE: We recommend that you use a dedicated customer-site circuit breaker rated for 20 A
(100 VAC) or 16 A (240 VAC), or as required by local code. Doing so enables you to operate
the router in any configuration without upgrading the power infrastructure.
5. Verify that the power cord does not block the air exhaust and access to router components, or drape
where people could trip on it.
6. Observe the system LED on the router. If an AC power supply is functioning normally, the system
LED lights green steadily.
If the system LED is not lit, the power supply is not functioning normally. Repeat the cabling
procedures.
