Caution: To prevent damaging the switch, DO NOTconnect a Power over
Ethernet-compliant Redundant Power System (C2RPS-POE) to the redundant power
supply connector. The switch is only compatible with the SecureStack C2RPS-SYS
redundant power supply system.
Precaución: No conecte una fuente de poder redundante (RPS) SecureStack C2 PoE
(C2RPS-POE) al cable de corriente. De lo contrario, el dispositivo puede dañarse.
