4.3 FT14H, DC-powered, -48VDC, 24VDC and 9VDC Installation
This section describes the proper connection of the -48VDC leads (or 24VDC,
9VDC leads) to the Direct DC power terminal block on the Magnum FT14H hardened
media converter (as shown in Figure above). The DC terminal block on the Magnum
FT14H is located on the left side of the unit and is equipped with three (3) screw-down
lead posts. The power terminals are identified as positive (+) and negative (-), and they
are floating inside the unit so that either of the terminal may be grounded by the user if
desired. The chassis is “earth” or ground (GND).
The connection procedure is straightforward. Simply insert the DC leads to the
FT14H’s power terminals, positive (+) and negative (-) screws. The use of Ground
(GND) is optional; it connects to the FT14H chassis. Ensure that each lead is securely
tightened from the top, as shown here.
