Chapter 2: Installing the AT-RPS3000 Chassis and Power Supply Modules
52
Planning the Installation
Observe these requirements when planning the installation:
Verify that the equipment rack containing the x610 Series switches has 
adequate space for the AT-RPS3000 Chassis. For further information, 
refer to “Selecting a Location for the AT-RPS3000 Chassis in the 
Equipment Rack” on page 57.
Check that the rack is safely secured and will not tip over. Devices in a 
rack should be installed starting at the bottom, with the heavier devices 
near the bottom of the rack.
Check that the power outlets are located near the chassis and are 
easily accessible.
If you are installing the AT-PWR1200 Power Supply Module in North 
America, verify that the AC power source has an NEMA 5-20R 
receptacle. The power cord that comes with the AT-PWR1200 Power 
Supply Module for installations in North America has a 20 Amp, 125 V 
NEMA 5-20P plug that is only compatible with an NEMA 5-20R 
receptacle.

Verify that the site provides easy access to the front and rear panels of 
the chassis. This will make it easy for you to install the power modules, 
view the LEDs, and connect and disconnect the power and RPS 
cables.
Check that the site allows for adequate air flow around the units and 
through the cooling vents on the front and rear panels. (The ventilation 
flow is from front to back, with the fans on the power supply modules 
drawing air out of the unit.)
Do not place objects on top of the chassis.
