7.
Connect the other end of the power cords to power sources on separate circuits to protect against
AC failure. (Make sure that two power cords are connected to the SN6000B 48-port switch and one
power cord is connected to the SN3000B 24–port switch.)
NOTE:
If you are configuring the second (optional) power supply, the SN3000B switch will also have
two power cords.
8.
Power on the power supplies by setting both power switches to the ON (
I
) position.
The power supply LEDs are amber until the POST is complete, and then change to green. See
Power supply and fan assembly LEDs
. The switch takes several minutes to boot and complete
POST.
NOTE:
When installed, the plenum covers the power supply switches and LEDs. However, the LEDs
are visible through the air holes in the front of the plenum.
9.
Slide the plenum over the nonport side of the inner rails, taking care to bypass the power cables. See
Figure 21: Connecting power and installing the plenum
on page 36.
10.
Tighten the thumbscrews to secure the plenum to the front of the rack.
11.
Verify that the switch power and status LEDs on the port side of the switch are green. See
12.
