DANGER

If the installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the device, make sure you use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the device.

Connecting DC power to a BigIron RX-4 chassis

You can provide your own DC power source for the BigIron RX-4 chassis. This is supported through use of a DC-to-DC power supply. DC power must be supplied at 48 V and 30 A. The DC-to-DC supply provides the DC power to the chassis at 12 V and 100 A.

The layout of the LEDs on your BigIron RX-4 DC power supply may be different from what is shown in Figure 21, due to multiple vendors; but the function is the same.
