Installing the EPS-600LS Power Supply

To install an EPS-600LS unit into an EPS-C, follow these steps:

  1. If necessary, remove a cover plate from a slot in the EPS-C.
  2. Slide the EPS-600LS into an empty slot in the EPS-C.
    Caution

    Caution

    Be sure that empty slots in the EPS-C chassis are always covered by a cover plate when not in use. The EPS-C is shipped with slots 2 and 3 covered and slot 1 open. Extreme Networks recommends that you populate slot 1 with an EPS-600LS unit first, but this is not required. You can install EPS-600LS units into any of the slots in the EPS-C. The installation sequence does not affect the performance of the power supply units, but empty slots must be covered at all times.
