Use the supplied AC power cord to connect to an AC power outlet.

The DC output connectors require a Cisco 16-pin-to-14-pin cable (CAB-RPS-1614=) to connect to supported devices. (One cable is supplied with the RPS; you can order additional cables separately.) The 16-pin connector plugs into the RPS, and the 14-pin connector plugs into the device. Use only the Cisco cable for this connection.

Warning Attach only the Cisco RPS 675 (model PWR675-AC-RPS-N1=) to the RPS receptacle. Statement 100C
