Step 2
Locate the two AC power cords and remove them from their shipping packaging.
Verify that the AC power cords shipped with the power supplies are the correct
type for your site.
Note
If you have received the wrong type of AC power cord, contact your
service representative for a replacement.
Step 3
Plug the socket end of each AC power cord into a receptacle on the PDU.
(See
Figure 3-18
.)
Step 4
Insert the plug end of each AC power cord into the AC power source outlet.
For full redundancy, connect each AC-input power supply to an independent
power circuit with its own circuit breaker. We also recommend that you use an
uninterruptable power source (UPS) to protect against power failures at your site.
Step 5
Verify that the AC power source circuit breaker servicing each of the AC-input
power supplies is switched on.
Note
When operating your router on a single power module, the second power module
bay must have a blank filler (MAS-GSR-PWRBLANK=) installed to ensure EMI
compliance.
Connecting to a DC Power Source
This section provides the procedure for connecting the router to a DC power
source.
Warning
The circuit breaker switch on the faceplate of the DC-input PEM should be in
the OFF position.
