If you are installing the STK‐RPS‐500PS in a stacked configuration, repeat this procedure for
each STK‐RPS‐500PS, then proceed to Connecting the RPS Cable and AC Power Cord.
Installing the STK-RPS-500PS on a Flat Surface
When installing the STK‐RPS‐500PS on a flat surface, the installation of the rubber feet is
recommended to prevent the STK‐RPS‐500PS from sliding on a flat surface.
To install the rubber feet:
1.
Place the STK‐RPS‐500PS on its back on a sturdy flat surface to gain access to the bottom of the
chassis.
2.
Remove the four rubber feet from their plastic bag in the shipping box.
3.
Locate the four marked locations on the bottom four corners of the STK‐RPS‐500PS.
4.
Remove the protective strip from the back of one rubber foot and position it on a marked
location and press firmly into place. Repeat this procedure to install the remaining three
rubber feet.
5.
After installing the rubber feet, return the STK‐RPS‐500PS to its upright position.
Connecting the RPS Cable and AC Power Cord
The STK‐RPS‐500PS is connected to the B5 PoE switch using the RPS cable, as follows:
1.
Turn off the B5 switch and unplug it from the power source before installing the STK‐RPS‐
500PS.
The B5 switch does not support hot insertion/removal of an RPS cable. If you hot insert an RPS
cable into a running B5 switch, the B5 switch will not recognize that an RPS cable is installed
and the B5 switch will lose power if the primary power supply fails.
