Redundant Power Supply Modules

The 5C105 supports two power supply modules which reside in the slots labeled PS1 and PS2.

CAUTION: If the 5C105 is configured with a single power supply module it must be
located in slot PS1.

Each power supply module supports an ac input connector that allows each power supply to be
connected to a separat e ac power so urce. In additio n, the power supply modules are capabl e of load
sharing 50% (+/- 5%) of the total load pres ented b y the 5C105. If one of the po wer sup ply modules
fails, the ot her po we r suppl y module s uppli es the e ntir e load for the cha ssis wi thout inter ruption t o
network traffic.

1-2 Introduction

3.2.5 Installing a Power Supply Module

You must install at least one power supply in the 5C105 chassis. One power supply provides
sufficient power for most module configurations but a second power supply can be installed to
provide a r edundant, load sharing po wer source. When t wo po wer supplies a re insta lled, the load is
evenly distributed. If one power supply fails for any reason, the second power supply assumes the
load.

CAUTION: If the 5C105 is configured with a single power supply module, it must be
located in slot PS1.

The 5C105 power supplies must be installed in the two slots labeled PS1 and PS2 on the far right
side of the chassis (Figure 3-4). If you i ntend to i nst all a si ngle po we r sup ply it must b e ins tall ed in
the slot labeled PS1 in the chassis. A fla t blade screwdriver is needed to install the power supply
module(s).

chassis backplane.

c. With the power supply inserted into the slotted paths, carefully slide the module forward

until it is c onnect ed to th e backpl ane with th e front panel flush wit h the fa ce o f the 5C1 05.
Do not force th e module int o place. I f signi fican t resist ance is encounter ed before the fr ont
panel is flush, remove and reinsert the power supply.

d. Secure the power supply to the chassis by using a screwdriver to tighten the two slotted

screws on the t op and bottom of the p ower supply. For pr oper chassis groundi ng, the screws
must be properly tightened.

module, proceed as follows:

1. Remove the blank panel covering the slot in which the Interface Module will be inst alled. All

other slots must remai n covered to ensure proper airflow and cooling. ( Save the blank plate in
the event you need to remove the module.)

2. Carefully remove the mo dule from the shipping box. (Save the box and packing materia ls in the

event the module must be reshipped.)

3. Locate the ESD wrist strap shipped with the 5C105. Attach the ESD wrist strap to your wrist

and plug the cable from the ESD wrist strap into the ESD grounding receptacle at the upper right
corner of the 5C105.

4. Remove the module from the plastic bag. (Save the bag in the event the module must be

reshipped.) Observe all precautions to prevent damage from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).

5. Examine the module for damage. If any damage exists, DO NOT install the module.

Immediately contact the Enterasys Networks.

CAUTION: To prevent damaging the backplane connectors in the following step, take
care that the module slides in straight and properly engages the backplane connectors.

NOTE: In the following step ensure that the top plastic locking tab lines up with the
desired slot number located on the front panel of the chassis. Refer to Figure 3-4.

6. Locate the slot guides that line up with the number of the slot in which the module will be

installed. I nstall the Int erface Module i n the chassis by aligning the module circuit ca rd between
the upper and l ower met al r ail g uid es of the de sir ed sl ot, sl iding it int o the c hassi s, a nd loc king
down the top and bottom plastic locking tabs, as shown in Figure 3-5. Take care that the
