The GigaCore RPSU should be located in the same rack where the GigaCore switches to protect are installed.
The RPSU is tted with four 1 meter 6 ways MICRO-FIT Molex cables. In the case the distance between the RPSU and the
connected switch to protect is less than one meter, best is to correctly roll the cable to prevent of heating issue.
Starting
Wiring
The device operates with an AC voltage between 100V and 240VAC within a frequency range of 50Hz to 60Hz.
