MX2010 DC Power Distribution Module (-48 V) Description
In the DC power configuration, the router contains up to two DC power distribution modules (PDMs) located at the rear of the chassis in slots PDM0/Input0 and PDM1/Input1 (bottom to top). A minimum of one PDM is required per system (two PDMs per MX2010 chassis) for nonredundant power. The DC PDM provides a power interface to nine power supply modules (PSMs).
Two PDMs provide full redundancy. In a redundant configuration, a total of fourteen 60-A or 80-A input feeds (7-feed DC PDMs), and a total of eighteen 60-A or 80-A input feeds (9-feed DC PDMs) are supported.
The power backplane for a subsystem distributes regulated 52 VDC to all boards supplied by that subsystem.
Each DC PDM has seven or nine DC inputs (–48 VDC and return terminals for each input). You can select 60-A or 80-A input feed capacity on the DC PDM by setting the DIP switch on the PDM to the rated amperage of the DC power input feeds.
The selected input capacity applies to all inputs of this PDM. Selecting 60 A reduces the available power output capacity of the PSMs supplied by this PDM.
Figure 1 shows the MX2010 DC PDM.
The type of feed that you use on the DC PDM (60-A or 80-A) depends on the distribution scheme and distribution equipment. With a 60-A feed, the maximum power supply output power is limited to 2100 W while the maximum power supply input power is limited to 2400 W. With an 80-A feed, the maximum power supply output is limited to 2500 W while the maximum power supply input power is limited to 2800 W. The system power management software calculates the available and used power based on DIP switch positions in the PDM.
