Ground the rack, mount the chassis in a rack, and ground the chassis before installing any switch 
components.
Complete the following tasks before installing any switch components:
Ground the rack—For more information about grounding the rack, see “Protective Grounding for the 
Rack” on page 46
Mount the chassis in a rack—For more information about mounting the chassis, see “Installing the 
Chassis” on page 132.

You need the following tools and equipment to install the Alpine 3808 and the Alpine 3804 AC power 
supplies:
ESD-preventive wrist strap
# 2 Phillips screwdriver
AC power supply
To install the Alpine 3808 and the Alpine 3804 AC power supplies:
1
Attach the ESD strap that is provided to your wrist and connect the metal end to the ground 
receptacle that is located on the top-right corner of the switch front panel.
2
If there is a blank faceplate covering the power supply bay, remove it and save it for future use.
3
Prepare the power supply for installation:
Use the text on the front of the power supply to ensure that it is oriented correctly for either the 
Alpine 3808 or Alpine 3804 
Move the safety latch to the “remove” position
Open the ejector/injector lever, as shown in Figure 65 and Figure 66
CAUTION
When you insert a power supply, use one hand to support the power supply from the bottom and the 
other hand to hold the central handle on the front of the power supply. Do not use just the 
ejector/injector lever to insert a power supply.

Use the central handle to guide the power supply into the power supply bay while supporting the 
supply from the bottom with your other hand.
