module can support one switch. You can purchase additional

Installing an AT-RPS9700 Power Supply Unit
Note
The redundant power supply should be installed close to the
switches so that you can easily connect the RPS cables to
the unit. It is recommended that you install the redundant
power supply directly above or below your AT-9700
Series Gigabit Ethernet switch or in a directly adjacent rack.
Perform the following procedure to install the power supply
chassis in a standard 19-inch rack.
1. Mount the AT-RPW9700 Power Supply Chassis in the 19-
inch rack using standard screws (not provided).
2. Insert an AT-PWR9700 Power Module into one of the
empty slots in the AT-RPS9700 chassis.
3. Tighten the screws holding the AT-PWR9700 Power
Module in place.
4. Attach the provided DC power cord to the DC connector on
the back panel of the AT-RPS9700 power supply.
5. Connect the other end of the DC power cord to the RPS
Input connector on the back panel of the switch.
