External power adapter
This section describes how to install the external power adapter (EPA) inside the power adapter holder. It also describes how to
attach the power adapter holder assembly to the switch. This EPA installation instruction procedure applies to the N3208PX-ON
switch only.
NOTE: Do not use this installation procedure for the full-width N3200-ON Series switches.
You can use one or two EPAs with your adapter holder in a two-post or four-post rack. You can side-mount a single EPA to the
switch. You can center-mount or front-mount the dual-EPA assembly.
You must order the mounting supplies for the EPA-related installation separately.
NOTE: If you are using two external power adapters (EPAs) in a two-post front- or center-mount rack, you must have two-
rack units space available in your rack. Install the switch in the bottom portion of the two-rack units and the EPA in the top
portion above the switch.
