AC-input power shelf or enhanced AC-input power shelf with dual AC power supplies

Two AC power cables

Two pairs of DC interconnect cables (CAB-5800-ACDC=)

One DB-25 to DB-9 monitor cable (CAB-PEM=)

One 6 gauge ground cable

Two hex nuts and M4 screws

Four 10-32 x 3/8-in. slotted screws

One metal safety cover and screws

3/8-in. nut driver

No. 2 Phillips screwdriver

1/4-in. flat-blade screwdriver

Wire strippers, if needed, for your DC power cables

Several cable ties to temporarily anchor the cables out of the way, if necessary

To connect the power cables and power up the system, proceed to the following section “Connecting the AC Power Cables.”

Mount the Cables on the AC Power Supply

It is possible to mount the cables on the AC power supply after it has been rack-mounted, but given the limited space in and around many equipment racks, we recommend that you mount the cables before rack-mounting the AC power supply. Figure 3-1shows cables mounted on a standard AC power supply, but the process is the same for the enhanced power supply. For a picture of the rear of the enhanced power supply, see Figure 1-17.To mount the AC power supply cables:

Step 1 Attach the ground-cable double ring lug to the ground posts on the rear of the AC-input power shelf. (See Figure 3-1,lower chassis.)

Step 2 Secure the double ring lug to both threaded ground posts with a hex nut on each stud.

Step 3 Attach two red DC-interconnect power-cable ring lugs to the terminal stud labeled BUS + on the AC power shelf chassis rear. (See Figure 3-1.)

Step 4 Secure the ring lugs to the threaded stud with a hex nut.

Step 5 Attach two black DC-interconnect power-cable ring lugs to the terminal stud labeled BUS – on the AC power shelf chassis rear. (Refer to Figure 3-1.)

Step 6 Secure the ring lugs to the threaded terminal stud with a hex nut.

Step 7 Attach the monitor cable DB-25 plug to the DB-25 receptacle on the rear of the AC-input power shelf. (See Figure 3-1.) Tighten the jackscrews.
