Activating the power source
When you complete the hardware installation, you are ready to activate the power source.
1.
Verify that all modules and power supplies are properly installed and all empty slots are covered by slot blanks.
CAUTION
If you do not install a module or a power supply in a slot, you must keep the slot filler panel in place. If you run the
chassis with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.
2.
If you are supplying a DC power source to your router, attach a power cable to each installed DC power supply as described in
the appropriate section:
Connect the other end of each cable to the DC power source. When you have completed these steps for each power supply
you can activate the power source.
3.
If you are supplying AC power to your router, attach one end of an AC power cord to each installed AC power supply as
described in the appropriate section:
Insert the other end of each cable into a wall outlet. The following rules apply:
•
1200W power supplies require 115V/120V outlets.
•
1800W power supplies require 200V-240V for full power or are limited to 1200W with 115V/120V outlets.
•
2400W and 3000W power supplies require high line (200V-240V) outlets.
DANGER
If the installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the device, make sure you use a
power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your country.
The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the device.
NOTE
Because the router is designed to provide uninterrupted service even when you insert or remove management
modules and interface modules, there is no on/off power switch. To turn the system off, simply unplug the power
cords.
NOTE
Wall outlets should be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible.
4.
Verify that the router has initialized successfully. Refer to
Verifying proper operation
To verify that your router is operating properly, observe the LEDs, or display the status of the modules using the CLI.
