Chapter 3 Hardware Installation and Connections

This section shows you how to connect the IES-5000 to a power source.

Use the following procedures to connect the IES-5000 to a power source after you have 
installed the chassis in a rack. 

Note: Refer to 

 for power requirements and make sure you 

are using an appropriate power source.

Observe the following before you start:

• Refer  to 

 for the gauge of wire to use for the IES-5000 power 

connections.

• Keep the IES-5000 power switches in the OFF position until you come to procedure for 

turning on the power.

• Keep the power supply switch in the OFF position until you come to procedure for 

turning on the power.

Note: Use only power wires of the required diameter for connecting the IES-5000 to a 

power supply (refer to 

 for the required wire gauge).

The main chassis uses two power supply modules. These modules are hot-swappable and 
supply power to the chassis cards.

The power connections are at the upper-right corner of the front panel of the chassis.

Note: When installing the IES-5000 power wires, push the wires firmly into the 

terminals as deep as possible and make sure that no exposed (bare) wires can 
be seen or touched.

1 Connect one end of a power wire to one of the –48V power terminals on the front panel of 

your IES-5000 and tighten the terminal screw.

2 Connect the other end of the power wire to the –48V terminal on the power supply.

3 Repeat the previous step for the second power supply module.
