Hot Swapping A 9C214-2 Power Supply can be installed or removed from the back of the chassis while another power supply is operating without affecting network operation. However, before removing a power supply make sure the switch is turned off.
Introduction Power Distribution System The SmartSwitch 9000 uses a distributed DC power system (Figure 1-2) similar to those used in super computers. Three separate power buses are used to distribute DC power. The 48 volt DC System Power Bus, located on the backplane, powers all modules and the system cooling fans.

Connecting a Nominal -48/-60 Volt Negative Power Source The nominal -48/-60 volt negative power source is connected to a 9C214-2 Power Supply using at least number 10 AWG (5 square millimeters) copper wire to which ring or spade terminals that will accept a number ten screw have been attached.
NOTE Module and all modules have been properly installed. 1. Turn on the 9C214-2 Power Supply using the circuit breaker at the bottom right of the power supply. (The power supply uses a soft start feature and does a pre-power diagnostic check. Outputs become enabled within 5 seconds of power on.)
9C214-2 Power Supply Operation The 9C214-2 Power Supply can operate with input voltages ranging from 36 – 72 positive or negative Volts Direct Current (VDC). Each 9C214-2 provides a maximum of 1000 watts of power to the SmartSwitch 9000. When two or more power supplies are installed, the system uses a current sharing scheme where under all load conditions each supply provides power equally.
