POWER CONSUMPTION
Use Table D to help you determine the maximum power consumption for each model. Power consumption of the NET5400T
Series varies depending on the number of video channels and the connected power supply.
NOTE: Power consumption rates are higher on the RK5200PS-5U because the rack power supports multiple units, cooling
fans, backplane board, and auxiliary devices such as relays and alarms.
RECOMMENDED WIRE GAUGE AND WIRING DISTANCES
Use Table to help identify the necessary wire gauge and maximum cable distance. This table applies to 2-conductor solid
copper wire. (Reduce distance by 10 percent for stranded copper wire.) These maximum distances are based on a
maximum allowable voltage drop of 10 percent.
Connect power to the unit. The Pelco badge (blue) and the status light (green) on the front panel should glow.
