Electrostatic alert:
To prevent damage from electrostatic discharge, always wear an antistatic wrist strap
connected to an ESD jack when performing maintenance on a 5000 Series switch. Ensure
that the wrist strap makes contact with your skin.
1. Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the two screws that secure the metal plate that
covers the slot in which you want to install the power supply module.
2. Remove the cover plate.
3. Insert the power supply module in the power supply slot. The following figure shows
the power supply module inserted in a 5600 Series switch.
4. Push the power supply module gently, but firmly, to insert it fully into the internal
connection port. When the power supply is fully inserted, the front of the power
supply unit is flush with the rear panel of the switch.
5. Secure the power supply module in the chassis by tightening the two retaining
screws. The following figure shows the captive screws.
