Installing the AT-8400 Power Supply Blank Faceplate
You can install an AT-8400 power supply blank faceplate with the chassis
either powered on or powered off.
Caution
Before installing an AT-8400 blank faceplate, refer to the
AT-8400
Series Switch Reference Guide
for electrical safety information.
To install an AT-8400 power supply blank faceplate, perform the following
procedure:
1.
Begin by removing the power supply cover plate, as shown in Figure 4.
Use a Phillips screwdriver and loosen the two captive screws that secure
the power supply cover to the chassis. Remove the cover by angling it
from the bottom as you slide it down and out of the chassis.

2.
Select the power supply slot in the AT-8400 chassis that is unoccupied
by a power supply. Blank faceplates can be installed in either power
supply slot.
Note
Always cover any unoccupied AT-8400 power supply slot with a blank
faceplate. The faceplate ensures proper cooling and ventilation of the
AT-8400 Series switch.
3.
Unpack the blank faceplate from the shipping package.
Caution
Observe all standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions, such
as wearing an antistatic wrist strap, to avoid damaging the chassis
device.
4.
Verify that the blank faceplate package includes all the items previously
listed in “Package Contents” on page 2. If any item is missing or
damaged, contact your Allied Telesyn sales representative for
assistance.

5.

Figure 5. Slide the faceplate forward into the empty power supply slot
until the faceplate is flush with the adjacent power supply.

6.
Secure the blank faceplate to the chassis by tightening the captive
screw on the faceplate.
Note
Always tighten the installation screw to secure the blank faceplate to
the switch chassis. Leaving a faceplate partially seated can allow dust
to enter the chassis and disrupt cooling and ventilation in the chassis.
7.
Slide the power supply cover back into the chassis and secure the cover
by tightening the two captive screws, as shown in Figure 6.
