Connecting a Power Source

The 2Gb SANbloc enclosure supports dual AC power supplies. Only one power supply is required for normal operation. However, a second, optional power supply may be added to provide a redundant power system. Each power supply has its own AC power inlet.

CAUTION: Power supply cords shall have conductors with a

cross-sectional area not less than 4mm2. This cross-sectional area corresponds to a minimum 10AWG wire.
