Starting the Switch
You start the switch by connecting it to its dedicated power source. If you need n+n redundancy, you must
connect each power supply in a switch to a different power source.
This equipment is designed to boot up in less than 30 minutes, dependent on its neighboring devices being
fully up and running.
Note
Before you begin
• The switch must be installed and secured to a rack or cabinet.
• The switch must be adequately grounded.
• The rack must be close enough to the dedicated power source so that you can connect the switch to the
power source by using a designated power cables.
• You have the designated power cables for the power supplies that you are connecting to the dedicated
power sources.
Depending on the outlet receptacle on your AC power distribution unit, you might
need an optional jumper power cord to connect the switch to your outlet receptacle.
Note
• The switch is not connected to the network (this includes any management or interface connections).
• The fan and power supply modules are fully secured in their chassis slots.
Step 1 For any AC power supply, do the following:
a) Using the recommended AC power cable for your country or region, connect one end to the AC power supply.
b) Connect the other end of the power cable to the AC power source.
Step 2 For any HVAC/HVDC power supply, connect it to a power source as follows:
a) Using the recommended high voltage power cable for your country or region, connect the Anderson Power Saf-D-Grid
connector on the power cable to the power receptacle on the power supply. Make sure that the connector clicks when
fully pushed into the receptacle.
b) Connect the other end of the power cable to a power source.
• When connecting to an HVAC power source, insert the plug in a receptacle for the HVAC power source.
• When connecting to an HVDC power source, do the following:
1. Place the power cable ground-wire terminal ring on the ground terminal for the power source and secure
them with a terminal nut.
2. Verify that the power is turned off at a circuit breaker for the power source terminals.
3. Remove the nuts from each of the terminal posts for the power supply.
