Has anyone figured out the make and model of the DC connector?

Just unplug the AC supply and leave it in place, add the DC Jack on the rear and connect it where the AC supply was unplugged, everything except the 1009PC I think I would stick with +24vdc Works like a charm. You can even do redundant AC using a meanwell ac-dc supply and a 3d printed bracket. If anyone wants to buy a pre-assembled dual AC CCR1036-EM for a few hundred more than MRSP I'll let one go, have several spares. 3d printed files are available with a quick google.

So you end up with the green terminal block on the Tycon sticking out where the AC connector was? I might steal that idea.

I have done this with several CCR models. On 10/26/2018 6:27 PM, SmarterBroadband wrote: Just ordered a couple of RSD-100C-24 to test….

I would guess that they won't run on higher voltage because they use quite a bit more power than the 1009. If you need to run them on 48v, it's probably best to just use a DC-DC converter and be done with it. In fact, I bet you could even fit something like a Meanwell RSD right inside the case in place of the AC power supply.

I think it's just got a normal AC adapter, like 2011 and 3011. it'll also take 12-57v (same as the 1100AHx4, I think). There's at least one model of CCR (a 1009, I don't know if they ever did that with anything bigger) that's made for DC and doesn't have an internal power supply.

It has switch chips though, each Ethernet port isn’t connected directly to the CPU, so there are some 2.5 Gbps bottlenecks, plus it has less total CPU horsepower. It also seems a shame to waste the AC power supplies. Makes it easy to power them up on the bench though. The soon-to-be-available 4011 has the same CPU but AFAIK doesn’t have a DC power input except maybe for POE.

I don't know what their acceptable range is, so I use a regulated DC-DC converter to give it exactly 24V. I've used Meanwell and Traco coverters. I drill a hole in the back of the CCR case and feed a heavy jacketed 16/2 through it and secure it with a zip tie on the inside of the case. There are two tiny holes near the corner that are just right to feed a little zip tie through....I'm not sure what their actual purpose is, but they are perfect to secure the DC cable. The polarity is not marked on the motherboard, so I always verify the polarity of the existing power wire and mark a + on the white plug with a sharpie. I leave the AC brick in their with the DC side cut off and taped up. My thinking is that if I had to I could reconnect the AC brick. -Adam On 10/26/2018 3:04 PM, SmarterBroadband wrote: Is anyone powering Mikrotik CCR routers from DC. It looks like if you pull the included AC PSU it feeds the Tik with 24volt DC. So can we just remove the supply and feed the tik from a 24v DC supply? Anyone doing this? Anyone know what the make / model of plug on the PSU? -- AF mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- Trey Scarborough VP Engineering 3DS Communications LLC p:9729741539 -- AF mailing list [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
