Preparing the installation site

CAUTION
The POE+ power supply is designed exclusively for use with the FastIron X Series POE+ devices. The power supply
produces extensive power to support 802.3at applications. Installing the power supply in a device other than the FastIron X
Series POE+ will cause extensive damage to your equipment.
CAUTION
Ensure that the device does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-current protection. To determine the
possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add the ampere (amp) ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as the
device. Compare this total with the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the
devices near the input power connectors.
CAUTION
Carefully follow the mechanical guides on each side of the power supply slot and make sure the power supply is properly
inserted in the guides. Never insert the power supply upside down.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to install the power supply without first releasing the latch on the front of the power supply. Attempting to
install the power supply with a closed latch will result in mechanical damage to the power supply and power supply slot.
DANGER
High Touch Current. Earth connection essential before connecting supply.

Cable specifications

Installation location

Before installing the device, plan the location and orientation relative to other devices and equipment. Allow at least three inches of space
at the front of the device for the fiber-optic and power cabling. Also, allow a minimum of three inches of space between the sides and the
back of the device and walls or other obstructions.

Removing extra shipment screws (FSX 800 only)

The FSX 800 ships with two extra screws installed in the right side of the chassis. These screws secure the fan tray, protecting it from
damage during shipment. You must remove these screws before installing the chassis. The figure below shows the location of the
screws.
To perform this task, you need a #2 Phillips-head screwdriver.
