Note

The RPS can only power one switch at a time. If more than one switch fails at
the same time, any subsequent switch is not supported by the RPS until the
first switch failure is resolved.

For more information on the Cisco RPS 300, refer to the Cisco Redundant Power
System 300 Hardware Installation Guide

Console Port

You can connect a switch to a PC through the switch console port and by using
the supplied rollover cable and DB-9 adapter. You need to provide a
RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter to connect the switch console port to a
terminal. You can order a kit (part number ACS-DSBUASYN=) containing that
adapter from Cisco. For console port and adapter pinout information, see the

“Connecting to the Console Port” section on page 2-33
