Hacking two internal power supplies into the CRS226-24G-2S+RM

Can’t recall now and I can’t access the modified devices either, but the photos should tell which one I used.

I have verified that the CCR power connectors are Molex 10-63-4027 connectors (or copies).
I have ordered a few of these and soldered them to the CRS motherboard of the second of 3 CRS devices being fit with dual redundant power supplies. They fit perfectly. Note that relative to the nearest edge of the board, they are reversed with respect to the CCRs.

Hey Alfredo, can you tell me where you purchased the Molex 10-63-4027 connectors? And do they come as a set of the solder in male pins and the matching female plastic clip in that can be soldered/wired to the PS line feed? Or is that a separate Molex item number?

Thanks!!

I think I ordered them from RS Components. Could also have been Digi-Key.

The part number quoted is for the male side. The Molex site will helpfully link these with their female counterpart and the useable contacts.

You need all three parts: Male (pins with their housing); female (hollow plastic); and contacts (that are installed inside the female).
