The DC power source must be reliably grounded
1.
Ensure there is enough power to supply the system.
The maximum system power consumption is 918.3
watts. It is recommended to ensure that
enough power is reserved from the power distribution system before installation. Also, please
ensure that both PSUs have been properly installed before powering up the equipment, as the
S9600-28DX is designed to support 1 + 1 power redundancy.
2.
Attach the DC power cables to the lugs.
The UL 1015, 8 AWG DC power cable (not provided) must be attached to a two-hole lug before
connecting to the PSU. The following instructions are for connecting the DC Power Cable to the
lug:
2.1 Strip the insulation from a DC Power Cable,
leaving 0.5” +/
-
0.02” (12.7mm +/
-0.5mm) of
exposed cable
2.2 Insert the exposed DC power cable into the heat shrink tubing, the length of heat shrink
tubing should not less than 38.5mm.
2.3
Insert the exposed DC power cable all the way into the hollow tube of the lug (provided
with switch package contents).
2.4
Using a crimping tool, firmly secure the DC power cable to the lug. It is recommended to not
crimp exceeding the lines indicated on the lug, which is also depicted as the cross-section area
in the picture on the below.
