Connecting AC power
NOTE
For the NEBS-compliant installation, AC power connections must use a surge protection device
(SPD) to protect the AC power supplies from damage due to excessive power line surges.
AC power is supplied through a power cord connected to the power supply in the Brocade MLXe-16
router.
