tipping, the SmartSwitch 9000 Chassis should be moved to the bottom of the rack
before installing the power boxes; or the rack should be secured to the floor.
Complete the installation of the first power box by following the steps below:
1. Remove the unit from the shipping box. (Save the shipping box and packing
materials in the event the power box must be reshipped.)
2. Remove the unit from the plastic bag and check for damage. If any damage
exists, DO NOT attach the unit. Contact Cabletron Systems Technical Support
immediately.

4. Line up the four holes in the frame of the power box with four corresponding
holes on the equipment rack (take care to properly align the holes).
5. Secure the power box to the equipment rack using four bolts shipped with the
equipment rack.
Connecting Auxiliary Power Cord
There are two auxiliary power source connectors on the back of the SmartSwitch
9000 Chassis. The power supply number that displays on the LCD of the 9C300-1
Environmental Module (EM) and local or remote management screens is a
function of the connection made from the power box to one of these connectors.
If the connection is made to the right auxiliary power source connector
(Figure 1-1), the power supply in the right side of the power box is number 3 and
the power supply in the left side is number 4.
If the connection is made to the left auxiliary power source connector (Figure 1-1),
the power supply in the right side of the power box is number 5 and the power
supply in the left side is number 6.
Using the auxiliary power cord, accessories supplied with the power box, and
referring to Figure 1-1, connect the auxiliary power cord from the power box to
the auxiliary power source connector on the back of the chassis by following the
