Upgrading the DC Power Supplies

Connecting a Three-Input 240-A Power Supply

To connect a three-input 240-A power supply to the power sources, follow this procedure:

1.Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis. See “Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage” on page 47.

2.Verify that a licensed electrician has attached cable lugs to the power cables that you supply.

3.Verify that the voltage across the DC power source cables leads is 0 V and that there is no chance that the cables might become active during installation. If needed, switch off the external circuit breakers.

4.Verify that the circuit breakers on the power supply faceplate are in the OFF position (O).

5.Remove the clear plastic cover protecting the terminal studs on the faceplate.

6.Remove the nut and washer from each power terminal stud.

CAUTION: You must ensure that power connections maintain the proper polarity. The power source cables might be labeled (+) and (–)to indicate their polarity. There is no standard color coding for DC power cables. The color coding used by the external DC power source at your site determines the color coding for the leads on the power cables that attach to the terminal studs on each power supply.

7.Attach the lugs on the DC source power cables to the terminal studs.

a.Attach the positive (+) DC source power cable lugs to the RETURN (return) terminals.

b.Attach the negative (–) DC source power cable lugs to the –48V(input) terminals.

Secure the cable lugs to the terminal studs, first with a washer, then with a nut (see Figure 17 on page 26). Use a 7/16-in. (11-mm) nut driver or wrench to tighten the nut. Apply between 23 lb-in. (2.6 Nm) and 25 lb-in. (2.8 Nm) of torque to each nut.

NOTE: For power supplies set to 3-INPUTmode (required for the T1600 routing node), connect two DC power cables to each of the three inputs.

8.Loosen the captive screw or screws on the cable restraint on the right edge of the power supply faceplate.

9.Route the DC power cables through the cable restraint.

10.Tighten the cable restraint captive screw or screws to hold the power cables in place.

T1600 specifications

Juniper Networks T1600 is a robust, high-performance router designed for service provider and large enterprise networks. As part of Juniper's T series of routers, the T1600 is engineered to facilitate efficient and scalable network operations, making it ideal for environments requiring intensive data traffic management.

One of the T1600's standout features is its capacity to deliver a high level of performance while maintaining reliability. The router supports multiple interfaces, including Ethernet, MPLS, and IPv4/IPv6, allowing for flexible connectivity options tailored to a variety of deployment scenarios. With a forwarding capacity of up to 3.2 terabits per second, the T1600 ensures that network demands are met with ease, even during peak usage.

The T1600 is equipped with advanced technologies that enhance its operational capabilities. Its architecture is built on Juniper's proprietary Junos operating system, which provides a stable and secure platform for managing the various networking protocols. The software enables seamless integration of security, routing, and switching functionalities, reducing the complexity of network management.

Additionally, the router features IPv6 readiness, preparing networks for the next generation of internet traffic. This future-proofing addresses the inevitable exhaustion of IPv4 addresses and caters to the increasing demand for internet-connected devices globally.

Redundancy and fault tolerance are intrinsic to the T1600's design, ensuring continuous operation and minimal downtime. Its modular architecture allows for easy upgrades and replacement of components, facilitating maintenance without significantly impacting network performance.

The T1600 also supports advanced Quality of Service (QoS) features, enabling network administrators to prioritize traffic according to business needs. This capability is crucial for applications that require consistent performance, such as VoIP and video conferencing, where latency and jitter can severely impact user experience.

Scalability is another critical characteristic of the T1600. As network demands grow, organizations can add capacity incrementally, ensuring that infrastructure investments align with evolving requirements.

In summary, Juniper Networks T1600 is a high-capacity, reliable router featuring advanced routing capabilities, robust security, and exceptional redundancy. Its integration of cutting-edge technologies positions it as a powerful solution for enterprises and service providers striving to enhance their networking infrastructure for the future.
