Installation Guide

An AC power cord is not included with a Summit AC power supply. You must obtain a power supply
cord that meets the requirements listed in Power Cord Requirements for AC-Powered Switches and
AC Power Supplies on page 653.
These switches have two bays for hot-swappable power supplies. In a switch with a redundant power
configuration, you can replace one Summit AC power supply without powering down the switch. To
replace a Summit 300 W AC power supply:
1. Disconnect the AC power cord from the wall outlet and from the power supply.
2. Note the orientation of the installed power supply.
3. Push the latching tab toward the power supply handle and pull outward on the handle to disengage
the power supply internal connectors.

4. Carefully slide the power supply the rest of the way out of the switch.
Caution
Power supplies can become very hot during operation. Wear thermal protective gloves
when you remove a power supply from an operating switch.
Note
If you are not installing a replacement power supply, install a cover over the unoccupied
power supply bay. Unoccupied bays must always be covered to maintain proper system
ventilation and EMI levels.
5. Verify that the replacement power supply is oriented the same way as the unit you removed.
