4. Push the power supply front panel into the router until it engages the backplane connector,
and the latch pin clicks into place.
For information about connecting power to the router, refer to “Connecting AC power” on page 54
or “Connecting DC power” on page 55.
Connecting AC power
AC power is supplied through a power cord connected to the AC power supply installed in the router.
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.
Follow these steps to connect the AC power cord.
