Chapter 4 Removal and Replacement Procedures
Removing and Installing the AC-Input Power Supply
Removing the AC-Input Power Supply
To remove the AC-input power supply from the chassis, follow these steps:
Step 1
Set the power switch to the off (0) position on the power supply that you are removing.
Step 2
Disconnect the AC power cord from source AC and from the AC-in connector on the power supply. Set
the power cord aside.
Step 3
Loosen the two captive installation screws on the power supply.
Step 4
Grasp the power supply handle with one hand, and slide the power supply halfway out of the chassis.
Place your other hand underneath the power supply and slide the power supply completely out of the
chassis. Set the power supply aside.
Note
The AC power supply is equipped with an EMI gasket on the top, bottom, and sides (on the front
edge) of the power supply. When sliding the power supply into or out of the power supply bay,
be careful not to damage the EMI gaskets.
Step 5
If the power supply bay is to remain empty, install a blank faceplate (Cisco part number 700-20988-xx)
over the opening, and secure it with the two captive installation screws.
