DC Power Connection
The QBOX-100P Series is connected by a 2-pin Phoenix connector (Figure 1, pos. 1) via a DC power supply wiring to a
DC power source.
The QBOX-100P Series is delivered with a power adapter with a 2-pin Phoenix power plug terminal attached as well
as a power cable. The Phoenix plug terminal may be separated from the power adapter depending on ordered
configuration. Users can use the supplied power cord and power adapter to carry AC power from AC power source
and then convert it into DC 12 V. Users can also detach the Phoenix plug terminal from the power adapter and use it to
prepare the connecting wires for DC connection. DC power voltage should be 12 V.
In case the supplied power adapter and Phoenix plug terminal are separated from each
other per your ordered configuration, the white wire of the adapter carries the positive
(+) end while the black one carries the negative (-) end.
