Connect the Redundant Power Supply (Optional)

AC models of Rapier Switches have a Redundant Power Supply (RPS)
connector on their rear panel (see Figure 1).

The Switch is designed to operate with the AT-RPS8000 RPS, which can be
purchased separately. Contact your authorised Allied Telesyn distributer
or reseller for more information.

10. Connect the data cables

Use straight-through or cross-over Ethernet patch cables to connect the
required device(s) to the switch’s ports. Make sure each cable connection is
secure. The switch will now perform basic Layer 2 switching functions. By
default, all switch ports are members of VLAN1.
