Figure 7. Minimize strain on wires - rack mount Power Module

Preparing the Dry End of the Cable (Legacy Power Modules)

Legacy rack mount Power Modules connect to the dry end of the cable using an Amphenol 97-3106A-24-7P
Circular Connector. The cable is supplied with this connector unterminated so that the cable can be run
through a conduit that has a smaller diameter than the connector. The connector may be assembled and
soldered by a qualified electrician. The wiring diagram for this is shown in table 2. The dry end connector
is approximately 2 inches (5 cm) in diameter.
