Power Requirements
11. If the panel is being powered by a
DPoE
™ Power Supply (See page 9,
Table 1: Power Supplies
Available from PANDUIT
for a list of available powering options), skip to
Powering Up the
DPoE
™
Power Patch Panel
Section below, since the
DPoE
™ Power Supply is equipped with a
matched keyed power connector that will fit the power connector on the back of the panel.
12. If the panel is being supplied by a
DPoE
™ Power Chassis or a direct 48VDC source, cut the 10-
foot power harness to length then strip the ends of the leads to 5/16” (7.9 mm). Connect the
stripped ends of the power harness into the
DPoE
™ Power Chassis. If the power harness is not
long enough or the 48VDC source requires a specific connector, strip the ends of the wire to the
same strip length, being careful not to damage the conductors.
13. Using the two butt splices provided with the panel, and paying attention to the polarity of the
supply voltage, crimp the power harness wires to the supply wires. A crimping tool, such as the
PANDUIT
part number CT-100, may be used. The provided butt splices (
PANDUIT
part number
BSV14X) support 14-16 AWG solid or stranded wire.
WARNING:
The power supply connections are polarized.
The
DPoE
™ Power Panel will not function if power is wired improperly. For
Maximum power the overall length of the wire between the power supply and the
DPoE
™ Power Panel must not exceed 35 feet.
NOTE:
The included power harness has two wires for the A-feed power only (pins 1 & 2).
The
DPoE
™ Power Patch Panel supports an optional redundant B-feed power
option, but the terminals and wire leads are not attached to the power harness.
Contact
PANDUIT
Technical Support for more information about connecting the
redundant B-Feed Power.
14. Lightly tug on the butt spliced connections to verify that the butt splices are secure.
NOTE:
Proper fuses need to be equipped when powering
DPoE
™ devices. (Refer to
installation sheet PN385 for appropriate
DPoE
™ Power System chassis fuse
selection.
