2.Connect the other end of the power cable to a standard 110V/220V power outlet.

3.If a second power supply is provided, repeat steps 1 and 2 to connect the second power supply.

Note: The 9010 FIPS, 12000-10G, MPX 9700/10500/12500/15500, MPX 11500/13500/14500/16500/18500/20500, MPX 17500/19500/21500, and MPX 17550/19550/20550/21550 appliances emit a high-pitched alert if one power supply fails or if you connect only one power cable to the appliance. To silence the alarm, you can press the small red button located on the back panel of the appliance.

Switching on the Appliance

After you have installed the appliance in a rack and connected the cables, verify that the power cable is properly connected.
