Removing and Installing the Fan Tray
Installing the AC-Input Power Supply
To install an AC-input power supply in the chassis, follow these steps:
Step 1
Remove the new AC-input power supply from its protective packaging and set the packaging aside.
Step 2
Loosen the two captive installation screws and remove the blank faceplate
(Cisco part number 700-20988-xx) covering the empty power supply bay opening.
Step 3
Verify that the power switch is in the off (0) position on the power supply that you are installing.
Step 4
Grasp the power supply handle with one hand, and place your other hand underneath the power supply.
Slide the power supply into the power supply bay. Make sure that the power supply is fully seated in the
power supply bay.
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 the power supply bay, be careful
not to damage the EMI gaskets.
Step 5
Tighten the two power supply captive installation screws.
Step 6
Plug the AC power cord appliance connector (C15 connector) into the AC-in receptacle on the power
supply.
Step 7
Plug the other end of the AC power cord into the source AC outlet.
Step 8
Switch the power supply on/off switch to on. Verify the power supply operation by ensuring that the
power supply front panel LEDs are in the following states:
•
INPUT OK LED is green
•
FAN OK LED is green
•
OUTPUT OK is green
As an added check, verify that you can hear the power supply fan operating.
