Verifying Switch Operation
Before installing the switch in a rack, on a wall, or on a table or shelf, you should power the switch and
verify that the switch passes POST. See Section 3, “Running Express Setup,” in the getting started guide
for the steps required to connect a PC to the switch and to run Express Setup.
If your configuration has an RPS, connect the switch and the RPS to the same AC power source. See the
“Power Connectors” section on page 1-14, and see the Cisco RPS documentation for more information.
Note Always put the RPS in standby mode when you are connecting devices to it and in active mode during
normal operation.
To power on the switch, connect one end of the AC power cord to the AC power connector on the switch,
and connect the other end of the power cord to an AC power outlet.
Warning Attach only the Cisco RPS (model PWR675-AC-RPS-N1) to the RPS receptacle. Statement 100C
