Turn on the Switch

Use the following instructions to turn on the switch

Connect AC Power

An AC power cord is not included with the AC power supply. You can purchase AC power cords for use in the US and Canada from Extreme Networks or from your local supplier. The cord must meet the requirements listed in Power Cord Requirements for AC-Powered Switches and AC Power Supplies.

To turn on the switch, connect one end of the power cord to the AC power input socket on the device and connect the other end to an AC power outlet.

Note

The switch does not have a power button, so connecting the power cable at both ends turns the switch on. The grounding connection in the power receptacle and in the power cord properly ground the power supply and extend that grounding to the switch.

Connect DC Power

Use the following instructions to connect the device to a DC power source.

Verify that the DC circuit is de-energized.
Verify that the ground wire is connected to the grounding lug on the rear of the switch.
The grounding lug is identified by the international symbol for earth ground:
Verify that the DC power input cables are properly connected to the DC power supplies at the rear of the switch.
Energize the circuit.

When the PSU LED has turned green, follow the instructions in Activate and Verify the Switch.

If the PSU and RPS LEDs do not turn green, refer to Power LED for troubleshooting information.
