5. Place the power supply in an anti-static bag for storage.
6. If the empty power supply bay where you are installing the power supply has a cover plate, remove
the two screws near the edges of the cover plate to unlock the plate, and then remove the plate.
7. Remove the replacement power supply from its packaging.
8. To install the power supply into the chassis, orient the power supply with the locking tab on the lower
right, as shown in the previous illustration.
9. With one hand, hold the bar on the front panel of the power supply. With the other hand, support the
underside of the power supply, and insert the power supply into the empty power supply slot. Slide
the new power supply into the chassis until the locking tab engages.
NOTE
Do not force the installation. If the power supply does not slide in easily, ensure that the power
supply is correctly oriented before continuing.
10. P lug the power cord from the AC power source into the power supply to power on the unit.
The power supply will immediately attempt to power up.

If you observe that the switch has powered down approximately two minutes after a power
supply replacement, it is likely because the new power supply has a mismatched airflow.
Check your console for error messages.
11. V erify that the LED on the new power supply displays steady green while the device is operating.
