Connecting the AC Power Cord to the Power Supply
This procedure is provided for a qualified electrician to follow when installing an AC power cord to the
AC in terminal block on the AC-input power supply. To connect the AC power cord wires to the power
supply terminal block, follow these steps:
Caution
AC power sources must be on dedicated AC branch circuits. Each branch circuit must be protected by a
dedicated two-pole circuit breaker.
Caution
Do not insert the power cord plug into the AC outlet until you have completed wiring the line, neutral,
and ground connections.
Step 1
Remove the plastic cover from the input power terminals and set it aside.
Step 2
Loosen the three Phillips-head terminal screws on the terminal block.
Step 3
Insert the exposed ground wire lead into the power supply ground wire connection on the terminal block.
Ensure that only wire
with
insulation
extends from the connector. Connecting AC Power to the Power
Converter
Step 4
Tighten the ground wire terminal block screw.
Note
The torque should not exceed 2.2 in-lb (0.25 Nm).
Step 5
Insert the line and neutral wire leads into the terminal block line and neutral connections. Make sure that
you cannot see any wire lead. Ensure that only wire
with
insulation
extends from the connectors.
Step 6
Tighten the line and neutral terminal block screws.
Note
The torque should not exceed 2.2 in-lb (0.25 Nm).
Step 7
Replace the plastic cover over the terminal block.
Step 8
Connect the plug end of the AC power cord into the source AC outlet.

If the default configuration is satisfactory, the switch does not need further configuration. You can use
any of these management options to change the default configuration:
•
Start the device manager, which is in the switch memory, to manage individual and standalone
switches. This is an easy-to-use web interface that offers quick configuration and monitoring. You
can access the device manager from anywhere in your network through a web browser. For more
information, see the switch getting started guide and the device manager online help.
•
Start the Cisco Network Assistant application, which is described in the
Getting Started with Cisco
Network Assistant
guide. Through this GUI, you can configure and monitor a switch cluster or an
individual switch.
