AC Power Circuit Breaker Requirements for the MX960 Router

The circuit breaker protection for all the power supplies should be designed according to National Electrical Code (NEC) of the country of the system installation or any similar local standard based on the maximum drawn current of the power supply specified in this document.

Each normal-capacity AC power supply has a single AC receptacle located in the chassis directly above the power supply.

Each high-capacity AC power supply have dual feeds. One AC receptacle located on front panel of the power supply while second one is located on chassis above the power supply.

Each high-capacity AC PEM accepts two AC feeds in two unique AC receptacles. We recommend that you use a dedicated customer site circuit breaker rated for 38 A (264 VAC) minimum for each high- capacity AC power supply, or as required by local code.

Each high-capacity second-generation (MX960-PSM-5K-AC) power supply has dual feeds. Both AC receptacles are located on front panel of the power supply.

Each power cord feed must have a dedicated circuit breaker.
