Step 4 Plug the AC power cable or DC wiring connector into the inlet receptacle at the rear of the chassis. For a DC
installation, you should secure the plug to the power supply by tightening both captive screws on the plug.
Depending on the outlet receptacle on your power distribution unit, you may need the optional
jumper power cord to connect the Cisco UCS 6300 Series Fabric Interconnect to your outlet
receptacle. See Cabinet Jumper Power Cords, on page 79.
Note
Step 5 Connect the other end of the power cable or cables to a power source. DC sources should connect negative
(black wire) and then positive (red wire) connections.
In a system with dual power supplies, connect each power supply to a separate power source. In case of a
power source failure, the second source will most likely still be available.
Step 6 Verify power supply operation by checking that the power supply LED is green.
Wiring a DC Power Connector

Warning
Before installing a DC power supply to the fabric interconnect, you must attach DC connection wires that
you provide (10 GA recommended) to the DC power connector included in the DC power supply’s accessory
kit.
Procedure
Step 1 Using a 1/8-inch flat head screwdriver or No. 1 Phillips head screwdriver, loosen the set screws on the connector
to freely accept the power wires. The connector will accept 8-24 AWG wires, use what your local electrical
code calls for.
