Hardware Installation Manual 22 Document #: LTRT-41667

4.2 Connecting to Power and Replacing Power Supply

This section lists the various warnings, cautions and notes regarding connecting to the power
supply and replacing power supply units.

Warning:

To reduce the risk of electric shock or energy hazards:

• This equipment must be installed by trained service personnel, as defined by

the NEC and IEC 60950-1, Second Edition, the standard for Safety of
Information Technology Equipment.

• Connect the equipment to a reliably grounded Secondary circuit source. A

Secondary circuit has no direct connection to a Primary circuit and derives its
power from a transformer, converter, or equivalent isolation device.

• The branch circuit overcurrent protection for DC power supply must be rated 27

A.

Caution:

If the DC connection exists between the earthed conductor of the DC supply circuit and
the earthing conductor at the server equipment, the following conditions must be met:

This equipment must be connected directly to the DC supply system earthing electrode
conductor or to a bonding jumper from an earthing terminal bar or bus to which the DC
supply system earthing electrode conductor is connected.

• This equipment must be located in the same immediate area (such as adjacent

cabinets) as any other equipment that has a connection between the earthed
conductor of the same DC supply circuit and the earthing conductor, and also
the point of earthing of the DC system. The DC system should be earthed
elsewhere.

• The DC supply source is to be located within the same premises as the

equipment.

• Switching or disconnecting devices must not be in the earthed circuit conductor

between the DC source and the point of connection of the earthing electrode
conductor.

Note: The DC power cord is not supplied. For information, refer to the Section

“Related Options: -48VDC Power Cables” at

https://h20195.www2.hpe.com/v2/gethtml.aspx?docname=c04346217

Warnings:

• Both Power Supply modules (1 and 2) must be connected. Ensure that you

connect each one to a different AC power supply source. Two Power Supplies
provide 1+1 power load-sharing and redundancy. The AC power sockets are
located on the device's rear panel.

• The two AC power sources must have the same ground potential.

• The device must be connected (by service personnel) to a socket-outlet with a

protective earthing connection.

• Use only a certified 3-conductor power cord, supplied with the unit.

Hardware Installation Manual 4. Deploying the Device

Version 7.2 23 Mediant 9000 Series SBC

Warning:

To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the power supply

or power supply blank to cool before touching it.

Caution: For DC power supply, u

se only the ring terminals provided with the power supply

for customer-built power connections. Be sure no wire protrudes from the bottom of the ring
terminal barrels.

Warning: Make sure that you connect the DC power feed cable to the power source in

the correct polarity. The cable's two wires are color-coded and numbered to indicate
polarity:

• Black Wire (1): negative (-) polarity

• Red Wire (2): positive (+) polarity

Note: When connecting both Power Supply modules, the two AC power sources must

have the same ground potential.

Warning: The device must be connected (by service personnel) to a socket-outlet with a

protective earthing connection.

Warnings:

• Before extracting the Power Supply module, disconnect the power cord from the

module.

• Before extracting the Power Supply module (after you have disconnected the

power cord), wait at least three seconds for the capacitors to discharge.

Note: For DC power supply, t

he minimum nominal thread diameter of a pillar or stud type

terminal must be 3.

5 mm (0.138 in); the diameter of a screw type terminal must be 4.0 mm

(0.157 in).

Note:

The DC power supply uses two power ring tongues and one ground ring tongue.

They are not interchangeable.

Mediant 9000 Series SBC

Hardware Installation Manual 24 Document #: LTRT-41667

4.3 Connecting Display and Keyboard

To perform initial configuration, display and keyboard are required.

 Connect the display to the 15-pin HD D-Sub (HD-15) VGA port.

 Connect the keyboard to the USB port.

4.4 Connecting Device to IP Network for 1-GbE Copper

This section shows how to connect the device to the IP network using the copper 1-GbE
ports.

Intra-building connections of the device require the use of shielded cables grounded at both
ends.

Caution: The intra-building ports of the equipment are suitable for connection to intra-

building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building ports of the equipment
must not be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the Outside Plant (OSP)
or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only
(Type 2 or Type 4 ports, as described in GR-1089–CORE, Issue 4) and requires
isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of primary protectors is not
sufficient protection to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.

The device's management interface uses special string names to represent the Ethernet
ports, as shown in the figure below:

Figure 4-1: Management Name per Physical Ethernet Port – Mediant 9080 / Mediant 9000 Rev. B

Figure 4-2: Management Name per Physical Ethernet Port – Mediant 9030

Hardware Installation Manual 4. Deploying the Device
