Replacing Power Supply Modules
The Kaleido-MX frames support dual redundant hot-swappable power supplies. The basic
configuration includes a single supply, with an empty slot for the optional redundant
power supply. Installing a second power supply module and applying power to it
automatically engages the redundant supply mode. Each power supply has its own power
socket on the rear panel, and should be connected to the AC supply using the power cords
that shipped with your hardware, or other approved cords.
