Connecting to a Redundant Power Supply 
The Switch connects to the Master Switch using a 14-pin DC power cable. A standard, three-pronged AC power cable 
connects the redundant power supply to the main power source.

1.  Insert one end of the 14-pin DC power cable into the port on the switch and the other end into the redundant 
power supply. 
2.  Using a standard AC power cable, connect the redundant power supply to the main AC power source. A green 
LED on the front of the DPS-500 will glow to indicate a successful connection. 
3.  Re-connect the switch to the AC power source. The LED indicator will show that a redundant power supply is now 
in operation. 
4.  Do not make any changes on the switch.  
NOTE: See the DPS-500 documentation for more information.
