Note If you are installing a redundant power supply in the Cisco AS5350, you should attach appropriate sized spade terminals to the stripped ends of the ground and input wires.

Step 4 Install the safety grounds (green wire) into the terminal block ground connectors and tighten the locking screws. Ensure that no bare wire is exposed.

Note For central office installations, we recommend using a copper 6 AWG green ground wire with one end connected to reliable earth. The other end of the wire should be crimped onto the double-hole lug provided in the installation pack. The lug should be secured to the mating holes on either side of the chassis with the two screws included in the accessory pack.

Step 5 Insert the 48 VDC Return wires into the terminal block positive connectors (+) and tighten the locking screws. Ensure that no bare wire is exposed.

Caution Do not overtorque the terminal block contact screws. The recommended torque is 5.0 in.-lb (0.56 N-m).

Step 6 Insert the -48 VDC wires into the terminal block negative connectors (-) and tighten the locking screws. Ensure that no bare wire is exposed.

Step 7 Make sure that the power supply wires are secured to cable strain-relief clamps with cable ties.

Warning

 

After wiring the DC power supply, remove the tape from the circuit breaker switch handle and reinstate power by

 

 

moving the handle of the circuit breaker to the ON position. To see translations of the warnings that appear in the

 

 

publication, refer to the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information document that accompanied this device.

Step 8

 

 

Power up the universal gateway. The internal power supply fan should power on.
