Installing Power Supply Units
For the ratings and power requirements of each power supply unit, see Appendix B, “Technical
Specifications” or the data sheet for the power supply at http://www.extremenetworks.com.
WARNING!
Be sure that the requirements listed in this section are satisfied when installing all Extreme Networks power
supplies.
When you install power supplies:
● Plug power supplies only into properly grounded electrical outlets to help prevent electrical shock
and comply with international safety standards.
● Use only power cords that are certified for use within the country of use. Do not attempt to modify
AC power cords.
● Make sure the wall outlet is installed near the equipment and is easily accessible for quick
disconnect.
● Make sure the voltage and frequency of your power outlet match the system electrical ratings for the
equipment. The building and/or power source must provide overload protection.
● Use a surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply to protect the system from
momentary increases or decreases in electrical power.
● When inserting a hot-swappable power supply into the bay, do not use excessive force.
● If multiple power supplies are used in a switch, connect each power supply to a different,
independent power source. If a single power source fails, it will affect only that power supply to
which it is connected. If all the power supplies on a single switch are connected to the same power
source, the entire switch is vulnerable to a power failure.
WARNING!
Extreme Networks 325 W DC PSUs do not have switches for turning the unit on and off. Make sure that the DC
circuit is de-energized before connecting or disconnecting the DC power cord at the DC power socket on the Extreme
Networks 325 W DC PSU.
Wiring the 325 W DC PSU DC power cord to your facility DC source voltage must be performed by a qualified,
licensed electrician.
Extreme Networks 325 W AC PSUs do not have switches for turning the unit on and off. Remove the wall plug from
the electrical outlet to disconnect the power from an Extreme Networks 325 W AC PSU. Make sure that this
connection is easily accessible.
Do not connect the power supply to an electrical outlet when the power supply is outside the chassis; doing so
would expose a hazardous energy and poses a potential shock and fire hazard.
Do not put your hand into an open power supply bay when a power supply is not present. Empty power supply bays
require a cover plate at all times.
