Step 1
Pull the power cord out from the power receptacle on the power supply to be removed and verify that the LED turns off.
The LED might be on and amber colored to indicate that the input power has been disconnected.
Note
Step 2
Remove the power supply from the chassis by pushing and holding its thumb latch to the left and pulling the power supply
part way out of the chassis.
Step 3
Place your other hand under the power supply to support it while you slide it out of the chassis.
Either place the power supply on an antistatic surface or pack it in its packing materials.
Step 4
If the power supply slot is to remain empty, install a blank power supply filler panel (part number N2200-P-BLNK).
What to do next
You are ready to install the replacement power supply.
Installing an AC Power Supply
You can replace one power supply while the other one provides power to the switch.
Before you begin
• The power supply that you are installing must be capable of using the same airflow direction as the fan
trays installed in the same switch and it must use the same type of power source as the other power supply
installed in the same switch (do not mix AC and DC power supplies in the same switch).
If the power supply that you are replacing has a different color handle
than the replacement power supply, verify that it has or will have the
same airflow direction as the other modules in the switch.
Note
• An AC power source must be within reach of the power cable that will be used with the replacement
power supply. If you are using
n
+
n
power redundancy, there must be a separate power source for each
power supply installed in the chassis. Otherwise, only one power source is required.
• There must be an earth ground connection to the chassis that you are installing the replacement module.
Typically, the chassis is grounded by its metal-to-metal connection with a grounded rack. If you need to
ground the chassis, see
Grounding the Chassis, on page 18
Step 1
Holding the replacement power supply with one hand underneath the module and the other hand holding the handle, turn
the power supply so that its release latch is on the side and align the back end of the power supply (the end with the
electrical connections) to the open power supply slot before carefully sliding the power supply all the way into the slot
until it clicks into place.
If the power supply does not fit into the open slot, turn the module over before sliding it carefully into the open
slot.
