Installing a Power Supply

You must install at least one 7C203-1power supply in the Matrix N7 chassis. One power supply
provides sufficient power for a fully loaded chassis, but a second power supply can be installed to
provide a redundant, load sharing power source. When you receive your N7 chassis a cover plate
will be in place over power supply slot PS2.
When two power supplies are installed, the load is evenly distributed. If one power supply fails for
any reason, the second power supply assumes the load.
The power supplies must be installed in the two slots labeled PS1 and PS2 at the bottom of the
chassis (Figure 3-7). If you intend to install a single power supply, it must be installed in the slot
labeled PS1 in the chassis. A large flat blade screwdriver is needed to install the power supplies.
