Connecting AC Power to an EX2200 Switch

The power supply in an EX2200 switch is located on the rear panel.

Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available:

A power cord appropriate for your geographical location

A power cord retainer clip

Ensure that you have connected the switch chassis to earth ground.

CAUTION: To meet safety and electromagnetic interference (EMI) requirements and to ensure proper operation, you must connect the switches to earth ground before you connect them to power. For installations that require a separate grounding conductor to the chassis, use the protective earthing terminal on the switch chassis to connect to the earth ground. For instructions on connecting earth ground, see “Connecting Earth Ground to an EX Series Switch” on page 67. An EX2200 switch gets additional grounding when you plug the power supply in the switch into a grounded AC power outlet by using the AC power cord appropriate for your geographical location (see “AC Power Cord Specifications for EX2200 Switches” on page 47).

To connect AC power to the switch:

1.Squeeze the two sides of the power cord retainer clip and insert the L-shaped ends of the wire clip into the holes in the bracket on each side of the AC power cord inlet on the rear panel (Figure 27 on page 74).

The power cord retainer clip extends out of the chassis by 3 in.

2.Locate the power cord or cords shipped with the switch; the cords have plugs appropriate for your geographical location. See “AC Power Cord Specifications for EX2200 Switches” on page 47.

WARNING: Ensure that the power cord does not drape where people can trip on it or block access to switch components.

3.Insert the coupler end of the power cord into the AC power cord inlet on the rear panel.
