1.

Securely fasten the mounting brackets to the NetVanta 1110 RPS using the screws provided 
with the unit. 

Important!

 To avoid damaging the unit when attaching the mounting brackets, use only the 

screws supplied with the unit.

2.

To allow proper grounding, scrape the paint from the rack around the mounting holes where 
the RPS will be positioned.

3.

Position the RPS in a stationary equipment rack either above or below the NetVanta 1238 
PoE (see 

Figure 1

).

4.

Have an assistant hold the RPS in position as you install two appropriate mounting bolts 
through the unit’s brackets and into the equipment rack.

5.

Connect the NetVanta 1110 RPS to the NetVanta 1238 PoE following the steps in 

Connecting the RPS and the NetVanta 1238 PoE

.

1.

Before installing the RPS on a horizontal surface, attach the rubber foot pads (included with 
the unit) to the bottom of each corner of the unit. The rubber feet cushion the unit, protect the 
casing from scratches and prevent it from scratching other surfaces. 

2.

Locate a sturdy, level tabletop or shelf that can support at least 30 pounds. 

3.

Place the RPS on the tabletop or shelf to the right of the NetVanta 1238 PoE with 2 inches of 
space between the units. 

Important!

 For adequate ventilation, the RPS should only mounted to the right of the 

NetVanta 1238 PoE and 2 inches of space should be maintained between the units and 
other objects in the vicinity. Do not place the units on top of each other or block ventilation 
openings.

4.

Proceed to the steps given in 

Connecting the RPS and the NetVanta 1238 PoE.

1.

With a Phillips head screwdriver, remove the cover plates from both the NetVanta 1110 
RPS and the NetVanta 1238 PoE’s RPS receptacles on the rear panels of the units.

2.

Compare the 

TOP

 surfaces of the connectors on either end of the RPS cable. On one 

connector, the right edge of the tab covering the pins is flush with the pins, while on the 
other connector, the tab is offset to the right of the pins approximately 0.16 inch (see 

Figure 3

). 

Figure 2. RPS Connectors

3.

With the 

TOP

 surface of the connector with the offset tab facing upward, insert it into the 

receptacle labeled 

RPS OUTPUT

 located on the rear panel of the NetVanta 1110 RPS see 

Figure 3

). Press the connector until the pins are fully inserted and the base of the connector 

is flush with the unit. 

Important! 

Do not use excessive force. If the connector does not insert easily, check to 

ensure you are inserting the correct connector into the unit.

4.

Tighten the thumb screws located on either side of the connector.

5.

With the 

TOP

 surface facing upward, insert the other RPS connector (with the flush tab) 

into the receptacle labeled 

RPS 

located on the rear panel of the NetVanta 1238 PoE (see 

Figure 3

). Press the connector until the pins are fully inserted and the base of the connector 

is flush with the unit.

6.

Tighten the thumb screws located on either side of the connector.
