DC power enters the Ribbon DSC Platform chassis through the DC Power Entry Modules (PEMs). Each DC PEM is rated for a voltage range of -43.5 V to -60  VDC.

The power capacity depends on the number of PMs used (1,100 Watts per DC PM).

For more information about the Ribbon DSC Platform power, refer to Power Management and Providing Power to the DSC 8000.

Refer to the regulatory label located on the rear of the Ribbon DSC Platform for the input voltage and current for your system (see the following figure).
