Chapter 3 Installing and Removing AC- and DC-Power-Supply Modules

Power-Supply Module Installation

Each DC-power input (A ± and B ±) is connected to both power-supply module 1 (PSU 1) and power-supply module 2 (PSU 2). The power-supply modules cannot be powered independently. DC inputs and returns are diode-isolated (Figure 3-9).

•Wire-stripping tools.

•Copper ground wire (insulated or noninsulated) for the ground connection.

•Dual-hole, right-angle ground lug from the switch accessory kit (for the Cisco ME 3400E-24TS-M and the Cisco ME 3400EG-12CS-M).

•Dual-hole ground lug from the switch accessory kit (for the Cisco ME 3400EG-2CS-A).

•Four leads of 16-gauge copper wire.

•Four-position DC-terminal-block connector from the accessory kit.
