2 Power connection
Do not connect mains to the desktop power supply before connecting the power supply to the
router.
Connect the DB9 female connector from the desktop power supply to the main unit. Tighten the screws to
assure a proper contact. To connect mains to the desktop power supply you need a mains cord with IEC
320 connector.
The CP-UNI is normally delivered with the desktop power model AC ±5V / 10W. Upon customer
request, CP-UNI can also be delivered with DC ±5V / 30W, which may be fed by a 36 – 72 VDC mains
power source. A Frame mounted power supply solution is also available.
Please refer to the latest Triton Product Catalogue for power supply types, or call Thomson Grass Valley
for this information.
If any third party power supply is used the CP-UNI requires +5V DC with a minimum current of 200mA.

The maximum cable length for an RS-232 connection is per definition 15m. Longer distances can be
installed depending on the environmental conditions of the installation site. It is the responsibility of the
