    Connecting Power This section provides safety information and procedures for connecting your Cuda 12000 to power sources. You must wire power sources to both the chassis and fan tray assembly independently. Both the chassis and fan tray can support connections to two separate power sources. Redundant power sources ensure that power to the system continues uninterrupted in the event that one power source fails.
