Attach the Ground Wires
1.
Remove the ground screw on the rear of the chassis adjacent to the ground symbol:
2. Place the ring terminal of the 10 AWG (4.0 mm
2)
Supplementary Ground Conductor on the screw.
3. Replace the ground screw to the chassis and securely tighten the screw such that it cannot be
loosened without the use of a tool.
If the ground block has been purchased: The ground block is provided for use with more than
one G700 (or other Cajun devices) in the rack. It is usually mounted by the customer electrician.
4. Cut the Supplementary Ground Conductor (which has one end attached to the grounding screw on
the chassis) to the length needed to terminate it into one of the terminals of the ground block. Do
not coil the Supplementary Ground Conductor.
5. Attach one end of the remaining 10 AWG (4mm
2
) ground wire to one of the terminals in the
ground block and the other end to an approved ground.
6. Cut this ground wire to the length needed to reach the approved ground. Do not coil this wire.
If the ground block is not being used, simply:
7. Attach the Supplementary Ground Conductor to an approved ground.
8. Connect the AC power cable to the inlet receptacle on the rear of the chassis.
You have now mounted the fully equipped G700 Media Gateway in the rack, cabled units together as
described in the planning documents, and connected to electrical ground conductors. When all the units are
mounted, cabled, and grounded, you are ready to apply power.
Connect AC Power
For North American installations, the AC Power Cord terminates on one end with a NEMA-15P plug
to connect to the AC main socket-outlet at the wall. For installations in other regions, the plug to be
used must comply with the local regulations and be marked as such, be suitable for the current and
voltage being used, and contain an earthing pin for connection to ground at the AC mains socket-
outlet through the cord.
To prevent accidental interruption of power to the G700 Media Gateway, do not connect the G700
Media Gateway to a switch-controlled AC wall socket-outlet. In addition, Avaya Inc. highly
recommends that the customer use a UPS for back-up power.
Advise your customer to verify through a licensed electrician that the ground connection at the AC
outlet to be used is attached to an approved ground.
Power Requirements
The G700 Media Gateway uses an auto-ranging 100-240 VAC power supply, 50 to 60 Hz, 5 A
maximum at 100-120 VAC and 2 A maximum at 200-240 VAC. The AC power source is to be single
phase, 3-conductor (Line, Neutral and Ground) with a 15 A circuit breaker for 100-120 VAC or a 10
A circuit breaker for 200-240 VAC.
