DC Powered Systems
In DC-powered systems, Cisco MGX 8220 supports one or two power entry modules (PEMs) each of
which can be connected to its own independent 48V DC supply. The PEMs are installed horizontally,
side by side in the bottom rear of the shelf. (See Figure 2-3.) Each module is powered from a 48V DC
power source using three wires.

The 48V DC cable is connected to the power entry module through a 3-position Euro-block connector.
The two modules provide power supply redundancy. Each power entry module is capable of supplying
enough power for a fully loaded Cisco MGX 8220 shelf.
An illustration of a PEM is shown in Figure 2-3.
