Preface
Congratulations on your purchase of a BayStack*10 Power Supply Unit
(BayStack 10 PSU). This equipment is intended for use with many Nortel
Networks*hubs, switches, and routers. The unit contains one Redundant Power
Supply (RPS) section, which contains slots for up to four power supply modules.
Other sections in the unit contain the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) and its
associated battery pack module. You can purchase the RPS or UPS components
of these sections separately, and install them into the BayStack 10 PSU chassis as
needed. The RPS controller module provides SNMP management to the BayStack
10 PSU if you are not using the UPS components.
In this document, this product is referred to as the BayStack 10 PSU, except when
information is specific to the RPS or UPS.
Before you begin
This guide provides information about using the features and capabilities of the
BayStack 10 Power Supply Unit.
This guide is intended for network administrators with working knowledge of
networking technology and power supply terms and operations.

Chapter 1
Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of components in the BayStack 10 Power
Supply Unit (PSU). The BayStack 10 PSU has powerful, modular redundant
power supply (RPS) and uninterruptible power supply (UPS) functionality in a
single chassis. It provides scalable power redundancy and protection to
low-wattage networking equipment. The RPS modules fit into the rear of the
BayStack 10 PSU chassis. The UPS and its associated battery pack module fit into
the front of the chassis.
You can provide DC power to up to four different devices, using the power supply
modules in the RPS section of the BayStack 10 PSU. If the utility power source is
interrupted, the UPS battery provides continuous AC power to those same four
devices. You can purchase and install the RPS and/or UPS components of the
BayStack 10 PSU, depending on the power requirements of your devices.
Explanation of symbols on labels
Figure 1 shows all the symbols found on the BayStack 10 PSU and its component
parts, and the following list provides the explanation. You may not use all the
components, so you may not see all the symbols listed.
Warning: This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment, this
product may cause radio interference, in which case the user may be
required to take adequate measures.

Chassis
The BayStack 10 PSU is three EIA standard rack units in height and contains
compartments that house the RPS and/or UPS components.
The chassis is shipped without components installed. Prior to shipping, metal
plates cover the empty RPS sections of the chassis. The plates protect you from
injury and protect the internal wiring of the chassis. These plates also ensure
proper cooling of the chassis. You must keep the plates attached to the chassis
unless you install the appropriate modules into each section. Four plates cover the
power supply module slots on the rear of the chassis. A plate covers the front left
side of the chassis, where you can install the UPS battery pack. The front right
side of the chassis is open. You must install either the controller module or UPS
prior to operating your BayStack 10 PSU.
Software built into the BayStack 10 PSU controller module uses the Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP) standard to manage and provide
performance information about the unit. The UPS provides similar
SNMP-generated features, in addition to its power supply functions. Refer to
Chapter 3, “Managing the BayStack 10 PSU,”for more information about the
software used with the BayStack 10 PSU.
Front panel
The LEDs on the front panel provide information about the RPS and UPS
components. Refer to “LEDs”on page 18 for more information.
The front panel of the BayStack 10 PSU chassis is divided into two sections. You
install different modules for RPS and UPS:
•Figure 2 displays the front panel with an RPS controller module
configuration. The controller module has LED indicators for fans, RPS, and
power modules.

•Figure 3 displays a battery pack module and UPS module configuration. The
battery pack module fits behind the left side of the front panel. Install the UPS
into the right front opening. The UPS module has LED indicators for chassis,
RPS, and UPS components.
Figure 3 UPS/RPS front panel
The three buttons on the right side of the UPS module enable you to turn the
BayStack 10 PSU off and on, and to turn off the alarm. Refer to “On/Off/BS
buttons”on page 22 for more information. When you are using the UPS
module, the unit turns on automatically in certain situations. Refer to
“Automatically turning on the power”on page 54 for details.
LEDs
LEDs on the front panel provide information about the operation of the
BayStack 10 PSU. LEDs specific to the RPS or UPS do not function unless the
appropriate component is installed in the chassis and power to the unit has been
turned on. Error codes displayed on the front panel indicate problems; refer to
“Error codes”on page 20 for details.
