Connecting Power - Extreme Networks Summit X150 Series Installation Note

5 Insert the switch into the rack.
Take care to load the rack so that it is not top-heavy. Start installing equipment at the bottom and
●
work up.
Do not cover vents that would restrict airflow. Leave half a rack space between adjacent units for
●
adequate ventilation.
6 Secure the switch to the rack using suitable screws (not provided).
Free-Standing and Desktop Mounting of Multiple Switches
The Summit X150 series switch is supplied with four self-adhesive rubber pads. Apply the pads to the
underside of the switch in the marked area at each corner. Make sure that all corners are aligned. You
can safely place up to four Summit X150 series switches on top of one another.

Connecting Power

Connect the provided AC power cord to the input connector on the back of the switch. Then connect
the cord to an AC power outlet.
You can connect the Summit X150 series switch to an optional external redundant power module to
provide backup power for the internal power supply. If you are using the EPS-160 power supply, install
and connect it as described in the EPS-160 Installation Note. If you are using the EPS-500 power supply,
install and connect it as described in the EPS-500 External Power Supply Installation and Removal Note.
