Step 5: Connect Power to the ACX Series Router
Depending on your configuration, your router uses either AC or DC power supplies. Perform
the appropriate procedures for each power supply in your router.

Connect Power to an AC-Powered ACX500 Router
To connect power to the AC-powered router, you need the following tools:
•
AC power cords
•
ESD grounding wrist strap
1. Locate power cords that have a plug appropriate for your geographical location. For
more information, see the ACX500 Universal Access Routers Hardware Guide.
2. Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the
ESD points on the chassis.
3. Insert the appliance coupler end of the power cord into the appliance inlet on the
power supply. See Figure 9 on page 14.
4. Insert the power cord plug into an external AC power source receptacle.
NOTE: Each power supply must be connected to a dedicated AC power
feed and a dedicated customer-site circuit breaker. We recommend that
you use a dedicated customer-site circuit breaker rated for 2 A (100 VAC)
minimum or 1 A (240 VAC), or as required by local code.
5. Dress the power cord appropriately. Verify that the power cord does not block the air
exhaust and access to router components, or drape where people could trip on it.
6. Observe the system LED on the router. If an AC power supply is functioning normally,
the system LED lights green steadily.
If the system LED is not lit, the power supply is not functioning normally. Repeat the
cabling procedure.
