VertiV™ rack mount power supply unit

Quick Installation Guide

 

Before

 

installing the Vertiv™ rack 

mount power supply unit (RMPSU), 
ensure the following:

• 

You must have at least a single 1U 
(19 in.) rack slot with one or two 
power inputs. 

• 

For devices that require a 12 VDC 
power supply, you must have a 2 m 
link cable for installation. 

• 

For a device that requires a 5 VDC 
power supply, you must have a small 
converter module positioned close to 
the device being powered. 

1.  Rack mounting the RMPSU

Slide the appliance into the vacant 
1U space within a rack and secure 
each pre-installed bracket to the 
rack using two screws per side. 

2.  Installing the elongated rack 

bracket (optional)

Place the elongated bracket on the 
rack, align the screw holes with the 
rack and fasten it in place with the 
supplied screws.   

NOTE

: The elongated rack bracket 

allows the module to be mounted 
immediately behind the device. 

3.  Mounting power converter 

modules

Mount each converter module 
close to the device to be powered 
by inserting the tabs of the module 
through the holes of the elongated 
rack bracket and slide the module 
to lock it in place.

NOTE: 

The indentations on the 

side of the converter module allow 
you to attach the module to other 
surfaces using plastic cable ties. 

4.  Connecting a 5 V device

Connect the 2.5 mm power jack 
of the module to the power input 
socket on the device. Connect the 
locking 3-pin plug to one of the 
power output sockets on the rear 
panel of the RMPSU main chassis.

5.  Connecting a 12 V device

Connect the locking 3-pin plug at 
one end of the link cable to the 
power input socket of the device, 
then connect the 3-pin plug at the 
opposite end of the cable to the 
power output socket on the rear 
panel of the RMPSU main chassis.
