Notes: Both power supplies must be of the same type to support redundancy.
The D2-PWR supply will power either the D2G124-12 or the D2G124-12P without PoE support. The
D2-PWR-POE is the only supply for powering the D2G124-12P with PoE support
Note: To take advantage of redundancy capabilities, each power cord must be plugged into a
separate, dedicated AC outlet.
Note: It is normal for the surface of the device to be warm.
