Matters That Require Attention
1. Elevated Operating Temperature:If installed in a closed or
m ulti-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of
the rack environment m ay be greater than room temperature.
Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the
equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum
am bient temperature (Tm a) specified by the manufacturer.
NOTE
In order to ensure reliable operations, please make sure the
operating temp
erature
of the environment does not exceed the
spec. When moun
ting a rack-mo unted s witch with other
operating units in a cabinet without forced ve ntilation, it is
recommended that 1U of space is reserved between each rack
-
m ounted switch and/or device.
2. Required Air Flow: Installation of the equipment in a rack should
be such that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of
the equipment is not compromised.
NOTE
The optimal keep-out zone is 50 mm for the top, bottom, left,
and right side of the device.
3. Mechanical Loading: Mounting of the equipment in the rack
should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to
uneven mechanical loading.
4. Circuit Overloading: Consideration should be given to the
connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect
that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent
protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of
equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this
concern.
5. Reliable Grounding: Reliable grounding of rack-mounted
equipment should be maintained. Particular atte ntion should be
given to supply connections other than direct connections to the
branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips).

ATTENTION
Safety First
!
Be sure to disconnect the power cord
before installing and/or
wiring your Ethernet Switch. Calculate the m aximum possible
current in each power wire and common wire. Observe all
electrical codes dictating the maximum current allowable for
each wire size. If the current goes above the maximum ratings,
the wiring could overheat,
which can cause serious damage to
your equipment.
Connecting the Power Inputs
The MDS-G4000 and MDS-G4000-L3 Series s upp ort 4 types of power
supply:
•PWR-HV-P48: one 110/220 VAC/VDC (90 to 264 VAC, 88 to 300
VDC), o ne 48 VDC PoE power input for PoE+ ports.
•PWR-LV-P48: one 24/48 VDC (18 to 72 VDC), one 48 VDC PoE
power input for PoE+ ports.
NOTE
The required power module depends on the choice of LM-7000H
m odule. Refe r to the following power/module combination
requirements.
•
LM-7000H non-PoE modules:
Any po we r m odule
•
LM-7000H PoE modules:
PWR-HV-P48, PWR-LV-P48 only
NOTE
The PWR
-LV-P48 power m odule is certified for Hazardous
Location use.
•PWR-HV-NP: one 110/220 VAC/VDC (90 to 264 VAC, 88 to 300
VDC) power input.
•PWR-LV-NP: one 24/48 VDC (18 to 72 VDC) power input.
For the PWR-HV-P48, the 110/220 VAC/VDC power supplies provide
power to the switch. Separate 48 VDC power supplies are required to
provide power to all PoE+ ports (50 to 57 VDC is recommended for
IEEE 802.3at devices. The max. PoE output from an external power
supply is 720 W when the operating temperature is under 60°C; 360 W
when the operating temperature is under 75°C.).
For the PWR-LV-P48 m odels, the 24/48 VDC power supplies provide
power to the switch. Separate 48 VDC power supplies are required to
provide power to all PoE+ ports (50 to 57 VDC is recommended for
IEEE 802.3at devices. The max. PoE output from an external power
supply is 720 W when the operating temperature is under 60°C; 360 W
when the operating temperature is under 75°C.).

ATTENTION
F
or Hazardous Location Use
The
PoE capacity of the PWR-LV-P48 is only certified for use in
h
azardous locations up to a maximum power budget of 369.6
W and a m axim um o utput o f up to 15.4 W per port.
For the PWR-HV-NP, the 110/220 VAC/VDC power supplies provide
power to the switch.
For the PWR-LV-NP, the 24/48 VDC power supplies provide power to
the switch.
Power Terminal Blocks
The connection for power input and PoE external power supply is on the
power modules.
PWR-HV-P48/PW R-HV-NP
1. Insert the neutral/line (L/N/Ground) AC wires into the terminals.
2. Insert the terminal block connector into the terminal block
receptor.
PWR-LV-P48/PWR-LV-NP
1. Rem ove 8 to 9 mm of the DC wires ’ protective cover.
2. Use a tool to push the spring mechanism inwards to open it.
3. Inse rt the negative/positive (-/+) DC wires into the terminals.
4. Release the spring mechanism.
5. Insert the terminal block connector prongs into the terminal block
receptor.

PoE Power Terminal Blocks
1. Rem ove 8 to 9 m m of the DC wire s’ protective cover.
2. Use a tool to push the spring mechanism inwards to open it.
3. Insert the negative/positive (-/+) DC wires into the terminals.
4. Release the spring mechanism.
5. Inse rt the terminal block connector prongs into the terminal block
receptor.
NOTE
In order to have higher levels of protection against surge, it is
suggested to install a
surge protector in front of the power
input
of the PoE powered device so that it is suitable for use in
IEC 61850 conditions.
NOTE
When wiring the power input, we suggest using the cable type -
AWG (Am erican Wire Gauge) 1
6-20 (1.31-0.519 mm2 ) and the
corresponding pin type cable te rminals. The rated temperature
of wiring should be at least 105°C.
NOTE
When wiring the
PoE power input, we suggest using the cable
type
- AWG (Am erican Wire Gauge) 16 (1.31 mm2) and the
corresponding pin type cable te rminals. The rated temperature
of wiring should be at least 105°C.
NOTE
When two power units are installed on the switch, both power
units will be activated simultaneously, which will enable power
redundancy.
NOTE
The reve rse power input connection will not activate the device
or PoE input
. In addition, the PoE will only activate when the
external power supply is installed on the same power unit.
Wiring the Relay Contact
Each power module has one relay output that can provide two types of
relay output. Refer to the table below for detailed information.
The relay contact is used to detect user-configured events. Two wire s
are attached to the relay pins with normally close and normally o pen
options.
1. Rem ove 8 to 9 m m of the DC wires’ protective cover.
2. Use a tool to push the spring mechanism inwards to open it.
3. Inse rt the wires into the terminals.
4. Release the spring mechanism.
5. Inse rt the terminal block connector prongs into the terminal block
receptor.
