The unearthed -48V DC power distribution provides the mechanism to connect to
the Switch 4500G. The distribution consists of several circuit breakers and
connection terminals for the positive (common) and negative -48V outputs.

You can also connect a battery to battery terminals prior to the DC power
distribution to provide uninterrupted power and to be protected against the loss
of AC mains power.

Connecting the Switch
to the Redundant Power
System
When connecting the RPS to the switch, the circuit breaker and 2-core cables need
to be matched to the switch’s power rating. Table 8 shows the recommended
circuit breaker and cable rating for the Switch 4500G. The recommended cable
length should not exceed three metres (9.84 feet).
