Installing a power module
CAUTION:
•
Provide a circuit breaker for each power module and make sure the circuit breaker is off before
installation.
•
Do not install power modules of different models on the same switch.
•
When moving the power module, support the bottom of the power module, instead of holding its handle
to avoid damaging the power module.
•
To ensure good ventilation, install a blank filler panel over an empty slot.
The switch series uses N + 1 or N + N power redundancy and supports AC or DC power input.
The power module slots are horizontal on S10504 and S10506 switches and vertical on the S10508,
S10508-V, S10510, and S10512 switches.
Strictly follow the order shown in
to avoid security hazards.

Installing a power module
An AC power module and a DC power module are installed in the same way. This section uses an AC
power module as an example. For information about AC and DC power modules, see H3C AC1200
Power Module User Manual, H3C AC2500 Power Module User Manual and H3C DC2400 Power
Module User Manual.
Some power module slots do not have a blank panel. The figures in this section are for illustration only.
To install the power module:
1.
Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded. For
more information, see "
."
2.
Use a Phillips screwdriver to loosen the captive screws on the blank filler panel (if any) to remove
the blank filler panel.
3.
Unpack the power module.
4.
Follow the installation graph printed on the blank filler panel of the power module to install the
power module in a correct direction:
a.
Grasp the handle of the module with one hand and support the module bottom with the other.
b.
Push the power module along the guide rails into the slot until it has firm contact with the slot.
5.
Press the handle inward until the handle seats into the slot.
6.
Use a Phillips screwdriver to fasten the captive screw on the handle to attach the power module.
