Selecting Power Supply Cords - Extreme Networks BlackDiamond 8800 Hardware Install Manual

•
Make sure that the wall outlet is installed near the equipment and is easily accessible for quick
disconnect.
•
Make sure that the voltage and frequency of your power outlet match the system electrical ratings
for the equipment. The building and/or power source must provide overload protection.
•
Use a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply to protect the system from
momentary increases or decreases in electrical power.
•
When you install multiple power supplies, connect each power supply to a different, independent
over-current protection device, such as a circuit breaker. If a single power source fails, it will affect
only that power supply to which it is connected.
•
Extreme Networks AC power supplies do not have switches for turning the unit on and off. Remove
all wall plugs from the electrical outlet to disconnect the power. Make sure that these connections
are easily accessible.
When you install DC power supplies:
•
Wiring the DC power cord to your facility DC source voltage must be performed by a qualified,
licensed electrician.
•
Extreme Networks DC power supplies do not have switches for turning the unit on and off. Make
sure that the DC circuit is de-energized before connecting or disconnecting the DC power cord at
the DC power socket on the Extreme Networks DC power supply.
•
Do not connect a DC power supply to the DC source power when the power supply is not installed in
the chassis; doing so would expose a hazardous energy and poses a potential shock and fire hazard.
Note
Building codes vary worldwide; therefore, Extreme Networks strongly recommends that you
consult an electrical contractor to ensure proper equipment grounding and power distribution
for your specific installation and country.
