Connecting Power to the GigaVUE-HC1

The GigaVUE-HC1 supports AC and DC power in a 1+1 redundant configuration. In all cases, only a single power supply module is required to operate the node. However, connecting both modules in a 1+1 configuration provides redundant power.

The procedure for connecting power to the GigaVUE-HC1 is similar to the other GigaVUE H Series nodes:

1.   Plug an approved C13 power cable into each of the power supply modules at the rear of the GigaVUE-HC1 chassis.

Note:  For information on connecting the optional DC power supply modules, refer to Figure 44: Connecting DC Power Supply Module .

2. Plug the other end of the power cables into a power source that can supply adequate power. For optimal power protection, plug the power supply modules into separate circuits.

When connecting to the external AC power source, ensure that a Surge Protective Device (SPD) is installed at the AC power inlet.

For information on GigaVUE-HC1 power requirements, refer to AC- and DC-Powered GigaVUE-HC1.

3. Power is turned on when the unit is plugged in, and turned off when the unit is unplugged.
