Connecting DC Power to the Cisco uBR10012 Router

This section describes how to connect the Cisco uBR10012 router to the two –48/–60 VDC power sources that provide its operating power. The DC power sources can either be already present at the site, or they can be provided by the optional 2400W AC-input power shelf. If using the 2400W AC-input power shelf, be certain you have already installed it, as described in the 2400W AC-Input Power Shelf Installation Guide, available on Cisco.com at the following URL:

The DC power connectors are pillar terminal blocks on the backplane. For full power redundancy, each terminal block must be connected to a separate power source. If using the optional 2400W AC-input power shelf, full power redundancy also requires that each of the AC power supplies in the shelf be connected to AC power sources that are on separate circuit breakers.

Warning A readily accessible two-poled disconnect device must be incorporated in the fixed wiring. Statement 91

Warning Connect the unit only to DC power source that complies with the safety extra-low voltage (SELV) requirements in IEC 60950 based safety standards. Statement 1033

Warning Secure all power cabling when installing this unit to avoid disturbing field-wiring connections. Statement 38

Warning Care must be given to connecting units to the supply circuit so that wiring is not overloaded. Statement 51

Warning This product requires short-circuit (overcurrent) protection, to be provided as part of the building installation. Install only in accordance with national and local wiring regulations. Statement 1045

Warning Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is OFF, locate the circuit breaker on the panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker in the OFF position. Statement 7

Caution Be sure that you have connected the chassis to earth ground as described in the previous section before beginning this procedure.
