Installing the Redundant Power Supply Adapter Plate

Step 3 Align the Cisco RPS Adapter Plate with the chassis cutout for the power supply. Tilt the adapter plate slightly toward you at the top, and rock it up and into place, ensuring that the two small hooks at the top of the Adapter Plate engage the router chassis. (See Figure 9.)

Step 5 Connect the six-pin connector to the system board. The connector is keyed so that it cannot be connected to the system board incorrectly. (See Figure 11.)

Step 6 Connect the 4-pin environmental status connector only if your router, with the connector connected, has been upgraded to the correct level of Cisco IOS software. Using any other level of Cisco IOS software can cause the router to crash. Cisco IOS Release 11.1(12)AA or later is compatible but will not show status from the RPS. Cisco IOS Release 11.2(7)P or later will provide RPS status information to the network.
