1.2.4 Power and Ground Connections
Power connection of VC-2402
AC Power Connection
If your VC-2402 uses AC power, connect the AC power cord to the AC supply
socket on the front panel of the DSLAM, and plug the cord into the external power
source. The voltage must be 100 to 240 VAC (±10% tolerance).
DC Power Connection
The DC power interface is a 5-pin terminal block with polarity signs on the front
panel of the DSLAM.
The VC-2402-48 can be powered from two –48V DC power supply. The DC power
connector is a 5P terminal block; 2P is for accommodating one DC power input
and other 2P is for accommodating another DC power input. The center pin of the
terminal block is FGND. The DC power should be connected to a well-fused power
supply.
After completing chassis installation, please apply power to the fused power
distribution panel feeding the chassis. When using a DC voltmeter, please check for
proper voltage: -60V ~ -36V DC, and make sure that the polarity is correct.
Warning
Ensure that all power sources to the chassis (power distribution
panel) are turned off during the connection.
Note
It is recommended that the -48VDC power be supplied directly and
independently by a power feeding system and also avoid having a
parallel or mutual connection with other -48VDC power supplier of
telecom equipment. This is to guarantee our products against inter-
ferences by other equipment while they are working.

11
Ground Connections
This section provides the grounding rule for the VC-2402. All remote system sites
must be properly grounded for optimum system performance.
In Central Ofce:
There should be a CO GND that is adequately grounded. If the measured
resistance from the grounding screw (on the front panel of the DSLAM) to CO GND
is less than 5 Ohm, then it can be assumed that the system is well grounded. If
the measured resistance is larger than 5 Ohm, it is recommended to connect the
grounding screw to CO GND using #14 or #12 AWG wire gauge conductor.
In Remote Cabinet:
The VC-2402 should be grounded by connecting a #14 or #12 AWG conductor
between the grounding screw (on the front panel of the DSLAM) and the earth
ground or main grounding bar. The resistance between the chassis and the
grounding bar should be less than 25 Ohm.

1.2.5 Connecting the VDSL/ADSLx and POTS interfaces
The VC-2402 supports 24 ports VDSL2/ADSLx subscribers per box. Depending on
your box, there maybe two RJ21 50-pin female connectors on the front panel of
the system. One for VDSL/ADSLx line and the other for POTS interface.
To connect the subscriber lines, use cables with the RJ21 50-pin male connectors.
When installing, just plug the end of a cable with connector into the POTS or
LINE interface female connector on the front panel. The other end of the cable is
generally tied to the MDF.

1.2.9 Housekeeping and Alarm Contact Output Interface
The VC-2402 has an RJ-50 port (HK) on the front panel to provide four
housekeeping inputs and one alarm contact output. Generally, housekeeping
contacts can connect to environment-sensor- controlled switch to indicate the
operation environment condition.
The HK circuit contains a photo coupler powered by the VC-2402 to detect the
“open” or “close” status of the loop between HK_IN and HK_COM (user does not
need to feed 3.3v power into the circuit). As to the alarm output, there is a relay
between ALMOUT and ALMCOM to control the status of the loop to be “open” or
“close” to the alarm equipment (close between ALMOUT and ALMCOM for alarm;
open if no alarm).
