    NOTE The maximum output power (shown in watts) is listed on the PSU label.
  3. Remove the PSU blank.

Steps

Slide the PSU into the system until the PSU is fully seated.

Next steps

  1. Connect the power cable to the PSU, and plug the cable into a power outlet.
    CAUTION When connecting the power cable to the PSU, secure the cable to the PSU with the strap.
    NOTE When installing, hot swapping, or hot adding a new PSU, wait for 15 seconds for the system to recognize the PSU and determine its status. The PSU redundancy may not occur until discovery is complete. The PSU status indicator turns green to indicate that the PSU is functioning properly.
