About the Redundant Power Supply Overview Note: The VSER-RPU-SYS is compatible with V2H124-24 and V2H124-24T only. This VSER-RPU-SYS External Redundant Power Supply (RPS) can supply 600 Watts of backup power to four switching devices in the event of an AC loss or failure of an internal power supply.
On Green Flashing Green On Green Flashing Red Figure 1-2. LEDs VSER-RPU-SYS Table 1-1. Port Status LEDs Status Power is being supplied to the RPS, the unit is functioning normally, and the RPS port is connected to a switch. Power is being supplied to the RPS, the unit is functioning normally, but no switch is connected to the RPS port.
Installing the Redundant Power Supply Installation Note: The VSER-RPU-SYS is compatible with V2H124-24 and V2H124-24T only. The RPS may be placed on a desktop or mounted in a rack. Caution: DO NOT place the RPS on the floor as the case is not waterproof. It is recommended that this RPS be installed in a network equipment rack.

Installing the Redundant Power Supply To rack-mount devices: Attach the brackets to the device using the screws provided in the Rack Mounting Kit. Figure 2-1. Attaching the Brackets Mount the device in the rack, using four rack-mounting screws (not provided).
Desktop or Shelf Mounting Attach the four adhesive feet to the bottom of the first RPS unit. Figure 2-3. Attaching the Adhesive Feet Set the device on a flat surface near an AC power source, making sure there are at least two inches of space on all sides for proper air flow. Connecting Switches to the RPS Caution: DO NOT connect the RPS to an AC power source until DC power cords have been connected to the supported switches.
Installing the Redundant Power Supply Power up the RPS by connecting one end of the AC cord to the AC receptacle on the RPS, and the other end to a grounded power outlet. Check the LEDs on the RPS to ensure proper operation. The Fan LED and the RPS LED for connected switches should light up.
If the fan LED does not turn on when the power cord is plugged in, you may have a problem with the power outlet, power cord, or internal power supply. However, if the unit powers off after running for a while, check for loose power connections, power losses or surges at the power outlet, and verify that the fans on the unit are unobstructed and running prior to shutdown.
