Connecting the EPS-500 Power Supply

CAUTION

Do not attach the AC power cord to the EPS-500 unit until the unit is properly grounded at the electrical outlet and the redundant power cord is connected.

One end of the EPS-500 cord has a keyed connector to ensure correct alignment of the connector

(Figure 154). The key is a plastic tab on the connector housing that fits into the EPS-500 unit to ensure correct alignment of the connector.

1Connect the keyed end of the EPS-500 redundant power cord to the power supply unit (see Figure 155).

2Connect the other end of the redundant power cord to the Extreme switch. The connector fits the slot in only one direction.

NOTE

If your switch was shipped with a metal cover plate over the redundant power input connector, remove the cover.

WARNING!

The redundant power input connector on the rear of the switch contains high energy and is a burn hazard. Use care when connecting the redundant power supply cord to the rear of the switch.
