Connect the other end of the RPS cable to the Redundant Power Supply connector on the switch.

See RPS Cable and AC Power Cord Connections for the RPS-500p.

1 = PoE-compliant switch	4 = Redundant Power Supply connector on switch
2 = RPS cable	5 = AC power cord
3 = Redundant Power Supply connector on power supply	6 = AC power outlet with ground connection

Note

AC power cords and outlets vary depending on country.

Connect the AC power cord to the AC input power connector on the power supply.
Plug the AC power cord into the main AC power outlet.

The AC OK and DC OK LEDs on the front of the power supply turn green to indicate that the connection was successful and the power supply is operating properly.

If the LEDs do not light properly, follow these steps to troubleshoot:

Check the AC power cord connection at the AC power source and make sure the power source is within specification.
Check the AC power connection to the power supply.
Swap the AC power cord with one that is known to work properly.
