Connect Power to an AC-Powered Router

You connect power to an AC-powered router by plugging the power cord supplied with each power supply into the appliance inlet on the power supply faceplate and into an AC power source receptacle.

To connect the AC power cords, follow this procedure:

1. Verify that the switch on each power supply faceplate is in the OFF (O) position.
2. Locate the power cords shipped with the router, which should have a plug appropriate for your geographical location (see AC Power Cord Specifications).
3. Attach an ESD strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the ESD points on the chassis.
4. Insert the appliance coupler end of a power cord into the appliance inlet on a power supply faceplate and insert the plug into an AC power source receptacle. Verify that the power cord does not block access to router components or drape where people could trip on it.
5. Repeat Step 4 for the other power supply.
