Cabling Power and Ground

The BROADway chassis accepts a DC power feed directly into the chassis.

NOTE: To power the BROADway system from an AC supply (110–230 VAC), you must use an external AC-to-DC converter.

As when installing any additional equipment within an existing or planned rack environment, consider how powering the BROADway chassis will impact the overall loading of the branch circuit used at the rack. A fully loaded BROADway chassis requires approximately 160W to power the system. When installing in a rack, make sure that a reliable ground (earth) path is maintained; the BROADway chassis is intended to be connected to a good Earth ground such as that provided by building steel, a cold water pipe or, preferably, a properly constructed ground plate or bonding network.

To connect power and ground to the BROADway chassis:

1.Verify that the ON/OFF (O/I) switch on the back of the chassis is set to OFF (O).

2.Connect the Earth ground stud on the back of the chassis to a suitable Earth ground as previously described.
