Supplying Power and Powering Up the System
Supply power to the S5000 system after the chassis is mounted in a rack or cabinet.
NOTE:
Installing and swapping of Fibre Channel or Ethernet modules must be done BEFORE power up. If you need to
replace a module, power down the system before you replace it. If you replace a module when the system is powered up,
the system does not recognize the module. Online insertion of modules can result in a catastrophic failure.
Dell EMC recommends reinspecting your system prior to powering up. Verify that:
• The equipment is properly secured to the rack.
• The equipment rack is properly mounted and grounded.
• The ambient temperature around the unit (which may be higher than the room temperature) is within the limits specified for the
S5000.
• There is sufficient airflow around the chassis.
• The input circuits are correctly sized for the loads and that you use sufficient overcurrent protection devices.
NOTE:
For powering up an AC PSU, an AC power cable is included in the shipping container. You must order all other
power cables separately.
CAUTION: ESD damage can occur if the components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel
ground strap when handling the S5000 and its components.
When the system powers up, the fans come on at high speed. The fan speed slows as the system boots up. The power status LED blinks
until the boot-up sequence is complete. When the boot up is complete, the power status LED is steadily lit.
AC Power
CAUTION:
Ensure that the PSU is installed correctly. The AC power connector must be on the left side of the PSU and
the status LED at the top of the PSU.
Connect the plug to each AC power connector. Make sure that the power cord is secure.
As soon as the cable is connected between the S5000 and the power source, the chassis is powered-up; there is no on/off switch.
