Installing A Redundant Power; Installing An Ac Power Supply - Brocade Communications Systems NetIron CES 2000 Series Hardware Manual

Installing a Redundant Power Supply
The NetIron CES 2000 Series device ships with one alternating-current (AC) power supply or direct-current (DC)
power supply. All models have two power supply slots, enabling you to install a second power supply for
redundancy. If desired, you can install a second supply for redundancy.
CAUTION: Changes or modifications made to this device that are not expressly approved by the party responsi-
ble for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
If you need to install a redundant power supply, it may be easier to install it before mounting the device, although
the power supplies are "hot swappable" and can be installed or removed after the device is mounted and powered
on.
