Connecting AC power

AC power is supplied through a power cord installed in the AC power supply installed in the router.

Follow these steps to connect an AC power source.

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.

1. Locate the power receptacle on the left side of the AC power supply.

2. Lift the cord retainer and connect an AC power cord to the power supply.

3. Snap the cord retainer over the power plug to hold it in place.
