Wiring the DC-Input Power Supply in Cisco 3631 Routers

If your router has a DC-input power supply, follow the directions in this section for proper wiring.

DC Wiring Requirements

ACisco 3631 router with a DC-input power supply requires copper wire and crimp-type terminals for the power connections. Table 3-2summarizes the wiring requirements.

You can connect a single DC power source to either the A input or the B input. If there are dual power sources, connect one source to the A input and one source to the B input; both sources must be the same polarity and voltage.

1.The input voltage tolerance limits for nominal 24/48-V power supplies are 18 and 72 VDC.

2.The input voltage tolerance limits for nominal 48-V power supplies are 38 and 72 VDC.

Wiring Procedure for DC Input

To connect the router to a DC power source, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Remove power from the DC circuit. To ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit, locate the circuit breaker for the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the circuit-breaker switch in the OFF position.

Tip Secure all power cabling when installing this unit to avoid disturbing field-wiring connections.

Step 2 Strip the wires to the appropriate length for the terminals. The strip length is 1/8 to 3/16 inch (3 to 5 mm) for Molex number 19193-0009 and for AMP number 324159-0 terminals.

Step 3 Crimp the terminals to the DC power input wires.
