Installing the Cisco MDS 9509 Director in a Rack

Caution If connecting a Cisco MDS 9509 Director to a 110-VAC power system, ensure that sufficient power is provided to meet the chassis power requirements for the number of modules installed.

When connected to 220 VAC, the 2500-W AC power supplies (DS-CAC-2500W) for the Cisco MDS 9509 Director are designed to provide an output power of 2331 W to power the modules and fans. When connected to a 110 VAC power system, the power supply provides approximately 1150 W. In this case, and if the power supplies are used in redundant rather than combined mode, they might not provide adequate power, depending on the number of modules loaded in the chassis.

If a 110-VAC input is chosen, a 110-VAC power cord (CAB-7513AC=) must be ordered separately.

Table 2-2lists the items provided in the Cisco MDS 9509 rack-mount kit.
