The card slots are numbered 1 to 3, from left to right, as viewed from the rear of the chassis. The following table lists the management peripheral cards, their priority, and proper position.

Management	P/N	Priority	Position

4.7.3.2 Installing Management Peripheral Cards

To install management peripherals, perform the following steps.

1)Make sure that the chassis is powered off.

2)Install management peripheral cards into the housings on the rear of the chassis. See the instructions supplied with the cards and the table above.

3)If you are daisy-chaining other APC external management peripherals to the APC Silcon Triple Chassis: Connect the UPS cable (supplied with the management peripheral) to the Monitoring port of the chassis and to the “To UPS” port of the other management peripheral (Share-UPS, MasterSwitch, etc.). See “Daisy-chaining the APC Silcon Triple Chassis”.

4)Power the APC Silcon Triple Chassis and all external management peripherals.

NOTICE!

If your configuration requires additional power, connect a 24V AC/DC power adapter available from APC (part number AP9505 or AP9505i) for all models of Triple Chassis.

4.7.3.3 Daisy-chaining the APC Silcon Triple Chassis

If you need more than the three card slots available with the APC Silcon Triple Chassis, or if you want to use other external management peripherals, you can daisy-chain external management peripherals together, provided that the total amperage of all installed management peripherals — cards and external — does not exceed the supplied amperage. (See “Determining Power Requirements:”).

NOTICE!

When daisy-chaining Triple Chassis units, you may need to use a power adapter.
