Installing and Connecting Alpine 3800 Series Switch Power Supplies
CAUTION
Do not use the rack-mount kits to suspend the EPS-LD under a table or desk, or to attach the switch to
a wall.
To install the EPS-LD, you need the following tools and materials:
• ES-preventive wrist strap
• A #1 Phillips screwdriver
To rack mount each EPS-LD unit:
1 Place the EPS-LD unit upright on a hard flat surface, with the side you want to face to the front of
the switch toward you.
2 Verify that the rack and chassis are grounded to protective earth ground.
3 Remove the mounting bracket kit (including screws) from the packaging.
4 Locate a mounting bracket over the mounting holes on one side of the unit.
5 Insert the screws, as shown in Figure 94, and fully tighten the screws using a #1 Phillips screwdriver.

6 Repeat steps 4 and 5 for the other side of the EPS-LD unit.
7 Insert the EPS-LD unit into a 19-inch rack.
NOTE
Mount the EPS-LD so that the output connectors are on the same side (front or back) as the
external connector on the connecting switch. If you mount the EPS-LD with the connectors facing in
the opposite direction from the Extreme switch connector, leave at least 1 U between the switch and
the EPS-LD through which to slide the cables. Do not route the cables around the equipment rack.
8 Insert the screws into the rack and the mounting bracket on both sides of the unit and fully tighten
with a suitable screwdriver.
Connecting the EPS-LD to the FM-32Pi Module
To use the EPS-LD unit to provide power to the Alpine FM-32Pi module, you need a special external
power supply cable to connect the module to the EPS-LD unit.
The EPS-LD external power cable kit contains one 1.5 meter long 14-pin to 4-pin connecting cable, as
shown in Figure 95.
