Caution

Observe all ESD precautions when handling sensitive electronic equipment.

Note

The switch should not be powered on during installation or removal of the power supply. This is not a hot-swap procedure. Follow the steps in the order specified.

Warning

For some X440-G2 models, when the RPS is not powered on and is connected to a powered switch, there is potential for a sudden load change that causes the switch to reset. It is best practice to unplug the switch before connecting the RPS.

1. Connect one end of the RPS cable to the Redundant Power Supply connector at the rear of the power supply.
2. Connect the other end of the RPS cable to the Redundant Power Supply connector on the switch.
