Connecting to Power
4 Facing the rear of the NV8300 power supply frame, use a WC0157-00 power cable to connect
PS1 to an 20 A AC power source. In the U.S., these power cables have a twist-lock connector,
In other countries, the cable lacks a power connector and you must fabricate your own.
5 Repeat step 4 for each PS8300 power supply module to be installed, at PS3, and optionally
at PS2 and PS4 for redundant power supplies.
6 Set the Frame ID switch on the NV8300 power supply frame to 1. See Figure 8-12.
7 Select the second NV8300 power supply frame.
8 Facing the rear of the NV8300, connect one end of a WC0154-00 power cable to the DC Out-
put connector. (See Figure 8-12 on page 130.)
9 Facing the rear of the router frame, connect the other end of the WC0154-00 power cable to
Power Input 2. (See Figure 8-15.)
10 Still facing the rear of the NV8280, connect the ground lug to earth ground using a copper
wire from 14 to 6 AWG. The ground lug is located in the lower right corner of the frame.
11 Facing the rear of the second NV8300 power supply frame, use a WC0157-00 power cable to
connect PS1 to an 20 A AC power source.
12 Repeat step 11 for each PS8300 power supply module to be installed, at PS3, and optionally
at PS2 and PS4 for redundant power supplies.
13 Set the Frame ID switch on the NV8300 power supply frame to 2. See Figure 8-12.
14 After all power connections have been made, and only when you are ready to power-up the
router, face the front of each the NV8300 power supply frame and insert a PS8300 in power
module slots 1, 3, 5, and 7. These slots are for the required, primary power supply modules. If
you are installing optional redundant PS8300s, install a module in slots 2, 4, 6, and 8:
