DC-Powered Systems

In a router to be equipped with DC-input power supplies, observe the follow ing guid elines:
Each DC-input power supply requires a dedicated 40A service.
For DC power cables, it is recommended that you use 4 AWG, high-strand-count wire
cable with dual hole lugs that fit over M6 (metric) terminals centered 0.625 inch
(15.86mm) apart.
For a listing of the electrical specifications for the DC-input power supply, see Table1-10
in Chapter 1.
Figure2-6 shows the specifications of the lug used for source DC power cable connections.
Note To prevent the crimp area on the lug (see Figure2-6) from coming in contact with
the metal faceplate of the DC-input power supply, add a length of heat-shrink tubing to this
area of the lug to provide extra insulation.
