5. Insert the power cord plug into an external AC power source receptacle.
NOTE: Each power supply must be connected to a dedicated AC power
feed and a dedicated customer site circuit breaker. We recommend that
you use a dedicated customer site circuit breaker rated for 15 A (110 VAC)
minimum, or as required by local code.
6. Route the power cord appropriately. Verify that the power cord does not block the air
exhaust and access to router components, or drape where people could trip on it.
7. Repeat Step 1 through Step 6 for the remaining power supply.
Powering On an AC-Powered MX5, MX10, MX40, and MX80 Router
To power on an AC-powered router:
1. Verify that the power supplies are fully inserted in the chassis.
2. Verify that each AC power cord is securely inserted into its appliance inlet.
3. Verify that an external management device is connected to one of the Routing Engine
ports (AUX, CONSOLE, or ETHERNET).
4. Turn on the power to the external management device.
5. Switch on the dedicated customer site circuit breakers for the power supplies. Follow
the instructions for your site.
6. Attach an ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and connect the strap to one of the
ESD points on the chassis.
7. Switch the AC input switch on each power supply to the on ( | ) position, and observe
the status LED on each power supply faceplate. If an AC power supply is correctly
installed and functioning normally, the status LED above each AC input switch lights
steadily green.
If the status LED on the power supply is lit red, the power supply is not functioning
normally. Repeat the installation and cabling procedures.
