PANDUIT DPoE Power System User’s Guide Issue 1.0
Part Number: PN380
OVERVIEW
The DPoETM Power Patch Panel (PANDUIT part number DPoE24U1X) provides a reliable and costeffective solution for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, complaint with the IEEE 802.3af-2003
specifications or the alternate PoE (Cisco Legacy) specifications. Each DPoE Power Patch Panel allows
centralized powering of up to 24 devices, such as Internet Protocol-based (IP) telephones, Network
Security Cameras, or Wireless Devices, over the same cabling used to provide the Ethernet connectivity.
Each DPoE Power Patch Panel fits into a 19" rack and occupies 1RU height.
The DPoE Power Patch Panels may be powered individually, such as with the PANDUIT individual power
supply (PANDUIT part number DPoEPWRB120), which delivers 120 watts at 48 Volts of Direct Current
(VDC) to a single DPoE Power Patch Panel. However, 120 watts may not be enough power to support all
the Powered Devices (PD) connected to the panel. In these cases, or in cases of multiple DPoE Power
Patch Panels, a larger power system is often required. One option is to use the PANDUIT DPoE Power
Patch Panel Power System, herein referred to as the DPoE Power System.
The DPoE Power System uses a modular design to supply power at 48 VDC to the DPoE Power Patch
Panel(s). The DPoE Power System consists of a chassis (PANDUIT part number DPoEPWRCU or
DPoEPWRCM), which can accommodate up to 3 rectifiers of either 500 or 1250 watts each, depending
on the current and future power requirements for the DPoE Power Patch Panels. The chassis can be
equipped with an optional Network Interface Card (NIC) (PANDUIT part number DPoEPWRNIC).
The DPoE Power System accepts an Alternating Current Voltage (VAC) between 100 and 240 VAC (47
to 63 Hz) and produces a regulated output of 42 - 56 VDC capable of delivering a max of 100 Amperes
(A) of Direct Current (DC) in an ambient operating temperature range of -40° Celsius (C) to +70° C. The
default voltage setting is 54 volts. It can be adjusted through the Element Management System (EMS).

INSTALLATION
General Practices
Observe all local and national electrical, environmental, and workplace codes.
Each chassis should be fed from a dedicated AC branch circuit of a TN or IT power system.
CAUTION:
Use single hole, Underwriters Laboratory (U.L.) listed lugs for the bulk DC connection to prevent lug
rotation and inadvertent contact with other circuits. Terminal strip connections use compression screws.
Class 1 wire is recommended for all DC connections.
Minimum wire sizes for protected and unprotected circuits are shown in Table 5: Minimum Recommended
DC AWG for 90° C Cabling for Unprotected Outputs , respectively. In practice, loop voltage drop
considerations will usually dictate larger than minimum safe wire size.
For connection and mounting torque requirements see Table 6: Recommended Torque Settings.
PANDUIT Corp. does not recommend shipping the chassis with the rectifiers installed. Rectifiers should
be shipped in their separate boxes.
The plug ends on the power cords used for the AC connections are
considered to be the primary disconnect means. Reasonable access must
be given to the plug and receptacle area. The receptacle must be fed with
a breaker or fuse according to Table 4: Recommended AC Circuit Breaker
and Wire Sizes.

DC Output Wiring Sizing
There are two main considerations for sizing DC wire: ampacity and voltage drop. Ampacity refers to the
safe current-carrying level as specified by U.S.-based organizations such as Underwriters Laboratories
and the National Fire Prevention Association, which publishes the National Electric Code (NEC). Voltage
drop is simply the amount of voltage loss in a length of wire due to ohmic resistance of the conductor. DC
wire may be sized for either ampacity or voltage drop depending on branch load loop length and
conductor heating. In general, ampacity considerations will drive wire selection for short loop lengths
(less than 50 feet) and voltage drop will drive wire selection for long loop lengths (greater than 50 feet).
The National Electric Code table 310.16 provides ampacity values for various sizes, bundles, and
insulation temperature rated wire.

CAUTION:
Table 5: Minimum Recommended DC AWG for 90° C Cabling for Unprotected Outputs shows
recommended wire sizes based on ampacity. The maximum current rating for the chassis is 100 A.

DC Output
DC connections are accomplished via the rear terminal blocks and bulk output connection as shown in
Figure 9: Chassis (Rear View) - DC Connections. GMT-fused connections are accomplished via the rear
compression screw terminal block that will accept wires sizes up to 12 AWG. Place wire in output and
corresponding return, and compress the screws to 4 in-lbs. Place a fuse into the corresponding position
into the fuse holder as shown in Figure 8: Chassis (Front View) - GMT fuse holder.
The DPoE Power System Chassis allows a bulk DC connection as shown in Figure 9: Chassis (Rear
View) - DC Connections. The bulk DC connection may be optionally used to ensure continued power to
the connected DPoE Power Patch Panels and the PD connected to the panels in the event of a power
failure. This connection may be used as a battery input or as an unfused bulk output. The bulk DC
connection requires properly crimped terminal lugs (1/4” single hole lug with a max tongue width of 0.63”
or less). Terminal lugs (such as PANDUIT part number LCA4-14-L for use with #3 or #4 AWG stranded
wire or #2 AWG solid wire) and crimping tools (such as the PANDUIT part numbers CT-1550, CT-1551,
CT-1570, or CT-1700) are available from PANDUIT Corp. The bulk output terminals feature a break-off
plastic piece to prevent inadvertent contact with the terminals. If using the bulk DC output feature,
carefully break off each plastic tab before securing the terminal lugs.

Ethernet Connections
The Ethernet port on the back of the DPoE Power System chassis is used to provide the connection
between the NIC card and the management system.
Test and Turn-Up
Power Up
Once all AC and DC connections have been secured and checked, install each rectifier sequentially by
sliding and latching it into the chassis as illustrated in the section below.
Rectifiers
The rectifiers for use in the DPoE Power System are equipped with Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) on the
front panel as a means to indicate problems with that specific rectifier. The rectifiers are designed as
modular, field replaceable units.
In the event that a rectifier needs to be removed, press the latch button on the front of the rectifier to
release the latch handle. Pull the latch handle until the rectifier clears the rear connector on the chassis,
then gently slide it out of the rear connector. With the latch handle open on the replacement rectifier,
slide the rectifier in until it connects with the backplane. While pressing the latch button down, use the
latch handle to gently ease the rectifier into the rear connector. When the rectifier is properly seated,
releasing the latch button will hold the latch handle in place.
WARNING:
The rectifier will power up and configure itself. It will start in high fan speed mode and reduce the speed
according to the ambient and plant conditions within 10 seconds.
The latch handle must be open for installation or removal of a rectifier.
Attempting to install a rectifier with the latch handle closed will result in
mechanical damage to the rectifier and the DPoE Power System chassis.
