with a minimum 18 AWG. Figure 27 on page 37 provides a detailed wiring diagram.
To connect the power cord, perform the following procedure:
1. Remove the grommet from the power cord entrance, cut a 1/4” “X” in it, and put it back in place.
2. Slip the power cord through the grommet.
3. Connect the wires in the power cord to the DC terminal block in the accessory kit (the wiring diagram is
shown in Appendix A) at 4.5 in-lbs. Or, use the Allied Telesis power cord, model AT-iMG646MOD-C01
(not provided).
4. Plug the terminal block into the DC power socket, as shown in Figure 7.
5. If not using the console cable, seal the grommet
