Connecting Switches to the RPU
Caution: DO NOT connect the RPU to an AC power source until
DC power cords have been connected to the supported
switches.
To connect switches to the RPU:
1. Connect one end of an AC cord to the AC socket on each supported
switch, and the other end to a grounded power outlet.
Figure 2-4 Power Socket
2. Connect one end of a DC cord to the redundant power socket on the
supported switch and the other end to an available socket on the RPU.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for connecting up to four supported switches to
the RPU.
4. Connect one end of the AC cord to the AC socket on the RPU, and
the other end to a grounded power outlet.
5. Check the LEDs on the RPU to ensure proper operation. The Link
LEDs for connected switches should light up. If the LEDs indicate
otherwise, see “Troubleshooting” on page A-1 for more information.
