Power supplies
The VEP4600 ships with one or two AC power supplies, depending on the conguration. Airow is from the I/O panel to the PSU—the red
indicator is the normal airow direction.
Two PSUs are required for full redundancy, but the platform can operate with a single PSU.
The PSUs are eld replaceable. When running with full redundancy—two power supplies installed and running—you can remove and
replace one PSU without disrupting trac.
CAUTION: To prevent electrical shock, ensure that the VEP4600 is grounded properly. If you do not ground your equipment
correctly, excessive emissions may result. Use a qualied electrician to ensure that the power cables meet your local electrical
requirements.
NOTE: Connect the power supply to the appropriate branch circuit protection as dened by your local electrical codes. Verify
that the remote power source complies with the platform input power specications.
NOTE: If you use a single PSU, install a blank plate in the other PSU slot. Use power supply 2 (PSU2) as the blank-plate slot. You
do not need tools to install the blank plate.
NOTE: ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when
handling the VEP4600 and components.
