Disconnecting an MX960 AC Power Supply Cord
To disconnect the AC power cord:
- Move the AC input switch, which is to the right
of the appliance inlet on the chassis, to the off (O) position.
- Unplug the power cord from the power source receptacle.
- Attach an electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap
to your bare wrist, and connect the strap to one of the ESD points
on the chassis.
- Unplug the power cord from the appliance
inlet on the power supply.
Connecting an MX960 AC Power Supply Cord
To connect the AC power cord:
- Locate a replacement power cord with the type
of plug appropriate for your geographical location (see AC Power Cord Specifications for the MX960 Router).
- Plug the replacement power cord into the corresponding
appliance inlet located in the chassis directly above the power supply.
- Insert the power cord plug into an external AC
power source receptacle.
 | Note:
Each power supply must be connected to a dedicated AC
power feed and a dedicated customer site circuit breaker. We recommend
that you use a 15 A (250 VAC) minimum, or as required
by local code. |
- Dress the power cord appropriately. Verify that
the power cord does not block the air exhaust and access to router
components, or drape where people could trip on it.
- Move the AC input switch in the chassis above the
power supply to the on (—)position and observe the
status LEDs on the power supply faceplate. If the power supply is
correctly installed and functioning normally, the AC OK and DC OK LEDs light steadily, and the PS FAIL LED is not lit.
