installation instructions in the Optical Inline Amplifier Hardware Guide.
To connect power to an optical ILA with AC power supplies:
1. To prevent damage to the equipment caused by static discharge, attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist,
and connect the strap to an approved site ESD grounding point.
2. Insert the coupler end of the power cord into the AC power cord inlet on the AC power supply faceplate.
3. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, set it to the OFF (O) position.
4. Insert the coupler end of the power cord into the AC power cord inlet on the AC power supply faceplate.
5. Open the power cord retainer by pressing the protruding tab and prying it open. Wrap the power cord retainer around
the AC power cord and push the cable clamp through the hole to tighten.
6. Repeat the steps for each power supply you are connecting.
7. Insert the power cord plug into an AC power source outlet.
NOTE:
The optical ILA powers on as soon as power is provided to the power supply.
8. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, set it to the ON (|) position.
9. Verify that the status LED for each power supply is lit green and is on steadily.
