Figure C5.0: -48V DC Dual-Source, wiring connections to the External

Terminal Block on a Magnum 8000X 48VDC with Dual-Source option

Note: The GND should be hooked up first. The 8000X unit has a floating

ground, so the user may elect to Ground either + or = terminal to suit the customer’s
use.

Before connecting to Terminal Block of –48VDC, 24VDC or 125VDC,

always use a digital voltmeter to measure the output voltage of the power supply and
determine the lead which is more “+ve potential”. The more “+ve” voltage lead from
48V or –48V supply must be connected to the post labeled “+”.

The connection procedure is straightforward. Simply connect the DC leads to

the hub’s power terminals, positive (+) and negative (-) screws. The use of Ground
(GND) is optional; it connects to the hub chassis. Ensure that each lead is securely
tightened.

The 24VDC & 125VDC terminal block on Magnum 8000X is similar to that

described in the –48VDC info above.

C5.1 UL Requirements

The following must be adhered to in order to conform to UL requirements:

1. Minimum 14 AWG cable for connection to a Centralized DC power source.
2. Fastening torque of the lugs on the terminal block: 9 inch pound max.
3. Centralized DC Power Source cable securement, use at least four cable ties

to secure the cable to the rack at least 4 inches apart with the first one
located within 6 inches of the terminal block.
