1.9 Installing Power and Ground for the 9102

1.9.1 Connect Power and Ground

The Allied Telesyn 9102 comes with a pre-installed AC power converter. (The 9103 comes with redundant AC
power converters.) With 14 AWG grounding wire (green/yellow insulation), the user connects the ground stud at
the rear of the unit to Frame ground. The user then connects the power cord from the AC power outlet to the AC
power converter and then turns the AC power converter on.
The AC power converter is located at the rear of the unit, as shown in Figure 1-13.
