the AC Power Supply B (PSB) is on the right. The front grill of the AC power supply tray has cutouts
that allow the AC OK and DC OK LEDs on the AC power supply modules (PSA and PSB) to be seen.
The AC power supply tray is optional.

redundancy.

Install the MGX 8830 Switch without a Mechanical Lift

Because of the risk of damage to the cards, modules, and backplane, it is strongly recommended that a
Caution
mechanical lift be used. Using a lift greatly simplifies the installation and reduces the risk of damage.
See
about installing the MGX 8830 switch with a mechanical lift.
If a mechanical lift is not available for installation, the switch must be manually lifted into place. Since
the switch is shipped with all components preinstalled, you must remove the cards and modules from the
switch so that you can lift it into the rack.
