Re: [j-nsp] MX960 AC power strip
Just FYI: The Juniper SKU for the MX c19/c20 power cord is CBL-MX-PWR-C19-C20 if anyone needed it.

Re: [j-nsp] MX960 AC power strip
You can easily get >30A PDUs with L6-20Rs which is what Juniper recommends for the MX960... e.g. http://www.apc.com/products/resource/include/techspec_index.cfm?base_sku=AP7893 Geist, ServerTech, etc. all also make many many options. -Scott H. -Login Inc.

Re: [j-nsp] MX960 AC power strip
We run 208v to ours, which reduces the amp load. Then we use 1u rackable tripplite PDUs on 30a circuits with C13s and C19s and C19-C20 cables.

Re: [j-nsp] MX960 AC power strip
I double checked the hardware guide to ensure, and they're not fixed cable: http://www.juniper.net/shared/img/products/mx-series/mx960/mx960-rear-high.jpg (If you're using the high-cap supplies there's a second input on the PSU's themselves) So just 8x C18-19 cables would be fine.

[j-nsp] MX960 AC power strip
Hi I need advice if someone is having an MX960 up on AC power. Usually high capacity (32A) power bars (PDU) come with C13 or C19 outlets while Juniper has no provision for such power cords. If European power cords are ordered with MX960, the CEE7/7 plug can be connected to Schuko outlets. But there is no Schuko PDU that supports more than 16A. One can easily exceed 16A if two power supplies are connected on same PDU. Can anyone recommend some alternative or if anyone faced similar situation? ___ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/juniper-nsp
