Power Supply

This chapter provides instructions to install AC Power Supply Units (PSUs) and DC Power Entry
Modules (PEMs):

•

AC Power Supply Units

•

DC Power Entry Modules

E-Series systems may contain only one type of power module—AC or DC. The E600i requires a
minimum of one DC Power Entry Module or a minimum of two AC Power Supplies

The chassis has four power supply slots (

Figure 6-1

). You may install DC PEMs in slots 1 and 3 only; you

may install AC power supplies in any slot.
