Verify that the remote source is in the OFF position.
Locate the appropriate studs on the PEM front panel.
• The two top studs (furthest from the GND) are the return (+48V DC) connection. The cable attached to these
studs is typically red.
• The two bottom studs (closest to GND) are the -48 V DC connection. The cable attached to these studs is
typically black.
NOTE: Cables must be terminated only with a UL-listed 2-hole lug to accommodate 1/4-inch studs with
3/4-inch spacing.
Apply a coat of anti-oxidant paste to the connector studs, if required.
Replace the washers and nuts on the studs.
Route the terminated cables out toward the rack rail.
Secure the nuts with a nut driver or torque wrench (not to exceed 4 ft/lbs).
