Connecting Power
The RUGGEDCOM RS1600 supports single or dual redundant high AC, high DC and/or
low DC power supplies. The use of two power modules is recommended to provide
redundancy and load balancing.
The RUGGEDCOM RS1600 can be equipped with either a screw-type or pluggable
terminal block, which provides power to both power supplies. The screw-type
terminal block is installed using Philips screws and compression plates, allowing
either bare wire connections or crimped terminal lugs. Use #6 size ring lugs for
secure, reliable connections under severe shock or vibration.
IMPORTANT
• For maximum redundancy in a dual power supply configuration, use two
independent power sources.
