Connecting the Power Supplies
Connecting an AC-Input Power Supply
If your chassis is equipped with AC-input power supplies, you need to run the AC power cord from the
source AC to the AC-in connector on the AC-input power supply.
To attach the AC power cord between source AC and the AC-input power supply (see
Figure 9
), follow
these steps:
Step 1
Verify that the system (NEBS) ground connection has been installed.
Step 2
Remove the AC power cord from its packaging.
Step 3
Verify that the AC power cord plug is the correct one for your installation site. There are nine different
AC power cords available. For AC power cord details, see the
Cisco ME 6500 Series Ethernet Switches
Installation Guide
.
Step 4
Verify that the power supply is completely seated in the chassis and that the captive installation screws
are tight.
Step 5
Verify that the power supply power on/off switch is off.
Step 6
Connect the C15 appliance plug to the AC-in receptacle on the power supply.
Step 7
Connect the power cord plug to the source AC outlet.
