Connecting AC power
AC power is supplied through a power cord connected to the AC power supply installed in the router.
NOTE
For the NEBS-compliant installation, AC power connections must use a surge protection device
(SPD) to protect the AC power supplies from damage due to excessive power line surges.
Follow these steps to connect the AC power cord.
1. Locate the power supply AC inlet on rear of chassis for the associated installed power supply.
2. Lift the cord retainer and connect the AC power cord to the AC inlet.
3. Snap the cord retainer over the power plug to hold it in place.
DANGER
If the installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the router, make
sure you use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations
for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used
safely with the router.
