Installing the Cisco AS5350
Supplying Power
Supplying Power
The power system comprises an AC or DC power supply or a redundant AC or DC power supply, with
internal cooling provided by two self-contained fans.
Note
The redundant power supply is supported in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)XB5 or later releases.
Each power module is capable of supplying a maximum DC load of 150 watts, and is composed of four
independent output voltages: 3.3V, 5V, 12V, and -12V. AC input units have power factor correction, and
low Total Harmonic Distortion. Power failures are reported through environmental monitoring software.
Check the power at your site to ensure that you are receiving “clean” power (free of spikes and noise).
Install a power conditioner if necessary.
The universal gateway AC power supply includes the following features:
•
Full range operation—100 to 240 VAC.
•
All AC units include a 6-foot (1.8-meter) electrical power cord (A label near the power inlets
indicates the correct voltage, frequency, current draw, and power dissipation for the unit.)
Note
The redundant AC power supply has a non-standard connector. Use the electrical power cord that
came with your universal gateway.
The universal gateway DC power supply includes the following features:
•
150 W output
•
Dual input connections for power source redundancy
•
Removable DC connector (A label near the power inlets indicates the correct voltage, current draw,
and power dissipation for the unit.)
•
Double-hole grounding lug for reliable grounding to the chassis
Follow this procedure to connect power to the universal gateway:
Step 1
Connect one end of the AC power cord to the power connector on the rear panel of the Cisco AS5350 (See
Figure 3-17 or Figure 3-18.) Or, if you are using a DC-powered unit, refer to Figure 3-19 or Figure 3-20,
and complete Step a through Step e.
Step 2
Connect the other end of the AC power cord to the power outlet.
Warning
This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that
a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC, 10A international) is used on the
phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors). To see translations of the warnings that appear
in the publication, refer to the

Warning
The device is designed to work with TN power systems. To see translations of the warnings that appear in
the publication, refer to the
Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information
