Input-Power-Present LEDs
The DC power Input-Power-Present LEDs provide a visual indication to service personnel that there is
voltage present across the input terminal’s connections (see
voltage present across the input terminal’s connections (see
). The LED provides a warning to
the service person that there is power present.
Note
Power should be disconnected before servicing the input power connections. Always check for
hazardous voltage with a multimeter device before servicing the router.

Input-Power-Present LEDs
The input-power-present LED starts to light up when the input voltage reaches 20 VDC; the LED gets
brighter as voltage increases. The input-power-present LED is fully lit when the input voltage reaches
38 VDC.

38 VDC.
Note
If an input-power-present LED is not lit, check for: 1) the presence of voltage, and 2) the polarity
of the corresponding wiring block.

DC Power Wire Characteristics
For signal degradation to be averted, a conductor must be large enough to prevent its impedance from
creating a voltage drop equal to 2 percent of the reference voltage. Also, the gauge of the earth conductor
must be equal to or larger then that of the -48VDC (or -48 VDC return) conductor. This latter
requirement is for safety. Full fault redundancy is achieved by having conductors of equal size for the
protective earth ground and the -48 VDC return of the switch.

For site preparation, proper wire size and insulation must be selected. For a planned power distribution,
calculation must be done prior to distribution to meet the proper voltage drop and temperature rise.
