Route power cords and data cables

Power cords and data cables enable efficient operation of the storage enclosure. You must properly route them through
the cable management arm (CMA) assembly and brackets to facilitate in-rack service of storage enclosure modules.
CAUTION You must ground the storage enclosure before applying power. Install the equipment close to the tested
socket outlets and make sure the outlets are easily accessible because the plug on the power supply cord is the primary
disconnect device.
To adhere to electrical safety precautions:
1. Observe the power supply disconnection caution label affixed to power supply units (PSUs).
2. Confirm the power supply input voltage range is 200 to 240VAC at 50 to 60Hz, then only operate the storage
enclosure in that range.
3. You must provide a suitable power source with electrical overload protection to meet technical specification
requirements.
4. You must use a provided power cord that has a tested, safe electrical earth connection for each storage enclosure
power supply.
5. Confirm the storage enclosure connection to earth before applying power to it.
6. Do not operate a storage enclosure with less than the provided two PSUs, four system fans, and two controller
channel fan modules, other than to provide in-service maintenance in the required time allotment.
IMPORTANT Use only Seagate or OEM-qualified fibre channel or HD mini-SAS (SFF-8644) x4 data cables that are
at least 3m (9.83 ft) in length and do not exceed 5m (16.4 ft) in length to connect to the SAS ports on each controller
module.

Route power cords from the power supply units

This basic task connects the supplied power cords to the redundant power supply units.
CAUTION Use only power cords supplied in the installation kit or those that meet product specifications.
CAUTION Adhere to the following electrical safety guidelines:
During installation, never connect a power cord to a power supply unit (PSU) before installing it in the appropriate
l
storage enclosure slot.
Only connect the power cord to power that complies with the product specifications within a range of 200 to
l
240VAC, per the hazardous voltage warning label on the PSU.
During service, always remove the PSU from power by disconnecting the right-angle power connector before
l
removal of the PSU.
