Connecting a Switch to a Power Source

CAUTION:
Read the safety information in the
manual as well as the safety information for other switches that connect to or
support the switch.
All N1500 Series switch models have one internal power supply. The power
receptacles are on the back panel.

AC and DC Power Connection

1 Make sure that the switch console port is connected to a VT100 terminal
or VT100 terminal emulator via the RJ-45 to DB-9 female cable.
2 Using a 5-foot (1.5 m) standard power cable with safety ground connected,
connect the power cable to the AC main receptacle located on the back
panel (see Figure 1-10 on page 26). The Dell Networking N1500P Series
models require a notched C15 to NEMA 5-15P power cable (available
separately).
3 Connect the power cable to a grounded AC outlet.
4 If you are using a redundant or modular DC power supply, such as the
Dell Networking RPS720 for non-PoE switches or the Dell Networking
MPS1000 for PoE switches, connect the DC power cable to the DC
receptacle located on the back panel. In Figure 1-10 on page 26, the
redundant power supply feed is in the middle and is labeled RPS on N1524
and N1548 switches. The modular power supply feed is labeled MPS on
N1524P and N1548P switches.
