Placement
The Niagara 5000UK is manufactured with four rubber textured polymer feet for safe, secure placement on any
table, cabinet, shelf, or floor. When rack-mounting is required, these feet may be removed with a standard Phillips
screwdriver. The Niagara 5000UK's design obviates the need for compliant or high-Q isolation feet. Although
many audio/video products benefit greatly from these devices, the Niagara 5000UK may not.
Placement or proximity to other components is not critical, and, under standard use, the Niagara 5000UK does
not produce any appreciable heat. The Niagara 5000UK may be rack-mounted in a standard 19" rack by attaching
the optional Niagara Series 3-RU rack ears. To attach the optional rack ears to the Niagara 5000UK chassis, first
remove the three Torx flathead screws from the front portion of both the left and right sides of the cover assembly.
Next, mount the rack ears flush against the back of the Niagara 5000UK's front panel. Finally, secure the rack ears
into place by installing the rack-mount kit's Phillips pan head SEMS screws.
When tight installations do not provide adequate room in a rack, shelf, or cabinet, the Niagara 5000UK can actually
be placed on its side. Such placement will pose no safety or performance compromises, but we recommend
placing a soft towel or carpet under the unit to prevent the chassis and front panel from being scratched or
marred in any way.
Connection to Audio/Video Components
AC Cable Routing
Once the Niagara 5000UK is placed, an appropriate 13- to 16-amp-rated high-current AC cord must be connected
to the rear-panel AC inlet (IEC-C20) connector. The AC cord must have an IEC-C19 female end connector and
a grounded male 240VAC UK-1 13P plug. We highly recommend the use of any AudioQuest 16-amp-rated
Wind Series or High-Current Storm Series AC cable. Because these cables feature conductors that have been
meticulously controlled for proper low-noise directionality, they will ensure the best possible results from the
Niagara 5000UK's Ground-Noise Dissipation Technology.
When facing the Niagara 5000UK's rear panel, the IEC-C20 inlet is located on the unit's lower-left side. The AC
inlet cord must be connected to an appropriate AC outlet (see "Power Source, " page 6).
Whenever possible, it is best to keep at least three inches (approximately 7cm) between AC cables and any signal
cable. When this is not possible in a practical layout of system cabling, crossing the AC cables to signal cables at
90 degrees is best to minimize induced noise.
High-Current | Low-Z Power Banks
There is one High-Current/Low-Z Power bank (labeled AC outlets "1" through "3"). These outlets feature our
Transient Power Correction Technology (90 amps peak - up to 25 mS duration) and are designed to enhance the
performance of power amplifiers via our circuit's low-impedance transient current reservoir. Power amplifiers,
monoblock amplifiers, integrated amplifiers, powered receivers, or powered subwoofers should be connected
to these three outlets. The primary mono, stereo, or multi-channel power amplifier(s) should be connected to AC
outlet 1. This enables the standby sense circuit, which requires the current draw of a power amplifier connected
to (and only to) outlet 1. In terms of sonic performance, there is no difference between outlets 1 through 3. If
the standby sense circuit is not utilized, and the sense circuit bypass switch is set to "Enabled, " any of the three
high-current outlets may be utilized.
