warranty covers a product during the Life of that Product, which is defined as the period of
time during which the product is an “Active” SMC product. A product is considered to be
“Active” while it is listed on the current SMC price list. As new technologies emerge, older
technologies become obsolete and SMC will, at its discretion, replace an older product in its
product line with one that incorporates these newer technologies. At that point, the obsolete
product is discontinued and is no longer an “Active” SMC product. A list of discontinued
products with their respective dates of discontinuance can be found at http://www.smc.com/
smc/pages_html/support.html.

FCC - Class A

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause interference to radio
communications. It has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A
computing device pursuant to Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection against such interference when operated in a commercial
environment. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference,
in which case the user, at his own expense, will be required to take whatever measures may be
required to correct the interference. You are cautioned that changes or modifications not
expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void your authority to
operate the equipment.

You may use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable for RJ-45 connections—Category 3 or
greater for 10 Mbps connections, Category 5 for 100 Mbps connections and Category 5, 5e,
or 6 for 1000 Mbps connections. Use 50/125 or 62.5/125 micron multimode fiber optic
cable, or 9/125 micron single-mode cable, for SFP transceiver connections.

War nings: 1. Wear an anti-static wrist strap or take other suitable measures to prevent

electrostatic discharge when handling this equipment.

2. When connecting this switch to a power outlet, connect the field ground
lead on the tri-pole power plug to a valid earth ground line to prevent
electrical hazards.

Industry Canada - Class A

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from
digital apparatus as set out in the interference-causing equipment standard entitled “Digital
Apparatus,” ICES-003 of the Department of Communications.

The RPU may be placed on a desktop or mounted in a rack.

Caution: Warning: DO NOT place the RPU on the floor as the case is

not waterproof.

RPU Packing List

• Redundant Power Unit — provides backup power to four SMC
devices

• One AC Supply Power Cord — US, Continental Europe or UK

• One DC Backup Power Cord — with IEC connectors on both ends

• Rack Mounting Kit — brackets and screws

RPU

• Star-head screwdriver

•This User Guide

• Warranty Registration Card — be sure to complete and return to SMC

Desktop or Rack Mounting

You can set the RPU on a desktop or flat surface near a separate AC power
source and close to the device to which it is to supply power. To mount the
RPU in a standard EIA 19-inch rack, use the brackets and screws supplied
with the RPU. Use a cross-head screwdriver to attach the brackets to the
side of the switch. Position the RPU in the rack by lining up the holes in
the brackets with the appropriate holes on the rack. And then use the
supplied screws to mount the RPU in the rack. (Leave about two inches of
space on the sides of the RPU to ensure adequate ventilation.)

Making Connections

Caution: Caution:DO NOT connect the RPU to an AC power source

until the DC power cord has been connected to the other
device (hub or switch).

1. Connect one end of the AC cord to the AC receptacle on the
supported devices (hubs or switches), and the other end to a grounded
power outlet.

2. Use the provided star-head screwdriver to loosen the screws on the
D-sub receptacle faceplates and remove the faceplates from both the
RPU and the supported device (hub or switch).

3. Connect one end of the DC cord to the redundant power receptacle
on the other device (hub or switch), and the other end to the IEC
receptacle on the RPU.

4. Connect one end of the AC cord to the AC receptacle on the RPU,
and the other end to a grounded power outlet. The Power LED on the
RPU should light up.
