Step 9: Apply AC Power and Check the LEDs
The switch does not provide an on/off switch. The power cord connection controls the power. Before
connecting the power cord, select an AC outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch, which can turn off
power to the switch.
To apply AC power and check the LEDs:
1.
Connect the end of the power cord to the power receptacle on the PSU on back panel of the switch.
If you installed two PSUs, do this for both PSUs.
2.
When you apply power, the Power LED that is associated with the bay in which you installed the PSU
lights.
The Power 1 LED on the front panel is associated with the PSU 1 bay. The Power 2 LED is associated
with the PSU 2 bay. If a Power LED does not light, check to see that the power cord is plugged in
correctly and that the power source is good.
3.
Check to see that the system LEDs on the front panel function as expected.

4.
Check to see that the LEDs on the port cards functions as expected.

Optional Step 10: Connect a Console to the Switch
This procedure is optional.
You can manage the switch through its local browser interface or through a console that is attached to the
switch. To be able to use a console, you need the following items:
•
A computer with a Windows, MAC, or Linux operating system, a UNIX workstation, or a VT100/ANSI
terminal.
•
Depending on the connector type at your computer or terminal, use one of the following cables, both of
which are included in the product package:
-
Ethernet cable for use with the RJ-45 RS232 console port
-
Mini USB cable for use with the mini USB console port
To connect a console to the switch:
1.
Connect either the RJ-45 RS232 cable or the mini USB cable to the appropriate port on the back panel
of the switch.
For more information, see
22.
2.
Connect the other end of the cable to your computer, workstation, or terminal.
