MPS-1S two-post installation
This installation procedure describes how to install an MPS-1S self in a two-post rack. Use L-brackets for front, five-inch-offset,
or rear-mount two-post installation.
These mounting supplies ship with the MPS-1S.
1. Remove the two L-brackets and screws from the shipping box.

2. Screw one L-bracket to the switch using the four M4 screws (length 6.8 mm).
Install the brackets to the switch in front, five-inch-offset, or rear mounting positions, as shown.
●For front-mount: The mounting bracket and bracket ears face the front of the EPS.
●For five-inch-offset mount: The mounting bracket is at the front of the EPS with the bracket ears facing the back of the
EPS.
●For rear-mount: The mounting bracket and bracket ears face the back of the EPS.
Torque the screws to 10 inch-lbs.

4. Screw the single-switch L-bracket to the two-post rack using two M4 screws (length 6.8 mm) for each bracket.
Torque the screws to 10 inch-lbs.
To remove the switch from the two-post rack, remove the four screws from the two-post rack and slide the switch from the
rack.
MPS-3S two-post installation
This installation procedure is for the three-slot EPS shelf. Use mounting brackets for front, 5-inch offset, or rear-mount
two-post installation.
These mounting supplies ship with the MPS-3S.
1. Locate the mounting brackets and screws that ship with the EPS.
2. Insert the mounting brackets onto the mushroom head on each side of the EPS and slide the mounting bracket back to lock
it into place.
●For front-mount: The mounting bracket and bracket ears face the front of the EPS.
●For five-inch-offset mount: The mounting bracket is at the front of the EPS with the bracket ears facing the back of the
EPS.
●For rear-mount: The mounting bracket and bracket ears face the back of the EPS.
3. Attach the mounting brackets to the switch using four screws for each bracket.
Torque the screws to 10 inch-lbs.

MPS-1S wall mount
Use the four wall-mount brackets to attach an external power supply (EPS) to the wall.
NOTE: Do not wall mount the EPS with the front panel/PSU facing up or down.
You need a drill and a pencil to complete this procedure. This procedure applies to one EPS.
1. Remove the wall-mount brackets, wall anchors, and screws from the shipping bag.
This procedure uses four wall mount anchors, four M5 screws (length 16 mm), and eight M4 screws (length 6.8 mm).
2. Screw two brackets to the left side of the EPS using the M4 screws (length 6.8 mm) for each bracket, as shown.
Torque the screws to 10 in-lbs.
3. Repeat to attach two brackets to the right side of the EPS, as shown.
4. Hold the EPS or wall-mount template to the wall and mark the screw-hole locations on the wall with the pencil.
Wall mount locations for MPS-1S are approximately 8.37 in x 6.76 in (212.60 mm x 171.85 mm) (L x W).

5. Drill four 0.3 in (8 mm) holes in the wall at the pencil marks.
6. Install four wall-mount anchors into the four holes.
7. Screw four M5 screws into the four wall-mount anchors leaving approximately 0.20 in (5 mm) gap between the anchor and
the screw.
8. Slide the EPS onto the screws and tighten the screws to secure the EPS in place.
Torque the screws to 24 in-lbs.

NOTE: Install the switch equipment in restricted access areas.
A restricted access area is one in which service personnel can only gain access using a special tool, lock, key or other means
of security. The authority responsible for the location controls access to the restricted area.
Console and Ethernet ports
The Console and Ethernet ports are used for debugging and firmware updates by service personnel only, and are not available
for use to the end user.
Ground cable
To attach a ground cable to the switch, use the included M4 screws (length 6.8 mm). The ground cable is not included. The
grounding lugs must be a UL-recognized, crimp-type lug.
CAUTION: Grounding conductors must be made of copper. Do not use aluminum conductors.
NOTE: Coat the one-hole lug with an antioxidant compound before crimping. Also, bring any unplated mating surfaces to a
shiny finish and coat with an before mating. Plated mating surfaces must be clean and free from contamination.
NOTE: The rack installation ears are not suitable for grounding.
To connect the ground cable to the switch:
1. Cut your user-supplied ground cable to the wanted length. The cable length must facilitate proper operation of the fault
interrupt circuits. Use the shortest cable route allowable.
2. Crimp the ground cable inside the preinstalled ground lug.
3. Attach the other end of the ground cable to a suitable ground point such as the rack or cabinet.
NOTE: Always secure the DC output cable to the output terminal block when EPS operating.
