Installing the Power Bridge Adapter
This section provides instructions on installing the power bridge adapter to allow the 6C110 chassis to support the
6C210-1 or 6C210-2 power supplies. If the legacy 6C205-2 or 6C205-3 power supplies will be used, DO NOT
install the power bridge adapter.
To install the power bridge adapter, perform the following steps:
1. Attach the ESD wrist strap.
2. Refer to Figure 1 to identify the front and rear sides of the power bridge adapter.
Figure 1 Power Bridge Adapter (Front and Back)
!
CAUTION
These instructions apply to users that will equip the 6C110 chassis with 6C210-1 or
6C210-2 power supplies. If legacy 6C205-2 or 6C205-3 power supplies will be used, DO
NOT install the power bridge adapter.
All Cabletron Systems interface modules are sensitive to static discharges. Use an ESD
wrist strap and observe all static precautions during this procedure. Failure to do so could
damage the backplane of the 6C110.

Figure 6 Installing the Blank Faceplate
1. Align the plastic guide runner of the blank faceplate with the slotted paths on the top and bottom of the opening.
2. With the blank faceplate inserted into the slotted paths, carefully slide the module forward until the front panel
of the blank faceplate is flush with the face of the 6C110. Do not force the blank faceplate into place. If
significant resistance is encountered before the front panel is flush, remove and reinsert the blank faceplate.
3. Secure the blank faceplate to the chassis by using a screwdriver to tighten the two slotted screws on the top and
bottom of the blank faceplate. For proper chassis grounding, the screws must be properly tightened.
4. Refer to the
6C110 Overview and Setup Guide
for instructions on installing a power supply in the slot labeled
“PS1”.

CAUTION
Forcing a misaligned blank faceplate into place can damage the chassis backplane.
