Connecting the EPS-160 Power Supply to the Switch

One end of the EPS-160 redundant power cord has a keyed connector to ensure correct alignment of the connector (Figure 148). The key is a plastic tab on the cord connector housing that fits into the EPS-160 unit to ensure correct alignment of the connector.
