VAC to 176 VAC, the maximum power falls to 400 W.
The AC and DC power modules are hot swappable. Please turn off the power switch before
unplugging/plugging the power module in order to prolong the use life of the power module.
Once the AC power is powered on, the “Input” and “Output” LEDs (“Run” LED on the
RG-PA800IF) on the panel stay green. Note that suddenly turning off the power switch or
pulling the AC input cable out during the running process of RG-PA800IF makes the “Run”
LED on the RG-PA800IF stay green for about 10 seconds before going off, which is a normal
phenomenon. And when the device starts, the three LEDs on the RG-PA800IF keep on for
about 1 second, which is not faulty.
To prevent damage to parts caused by rapid power-on/power-off, do not power on
RG-S8606/S8606 B/S8610/S8614 within 30 seconds after power-off.
Use the corresponding cables to connect power modules.
It is recommended to clear the air filter once per three months.
It is recommended to use two power modules of the same model when two power modules
are used.
Users should select power modules according to the total consumption power of purchased
modules to guarantee that the power consumption of the power module is larger than the
system requirement. If the power consumption exceeds the power consumption of a power
module, please purchase another one. For power supply calculation , please refer to Selecting
the Right Power Supplies in “RG-S8600 Series Switch Hardware Installation Manual”
It is recommended to use 1+1 redundant power supply (RPS). However, if the total power
consumption of all modules exceeds the maximum power of one power supply, the RPS function
does not work.
For 1+1 redundant configuration, configure different supply powers for two power modules. For
example, one is commercial power and the other is UPS power.
System Grounding
Grounding Requirements
An outstanding grounding system is the basis of stable and reliable operation of
RG-S8606/S8606 B/S8610/S8614 and the essential condition for lightning and interference
prevention.
For the safety of body and switch, good grounding is necessary for the switch. The electric

resistance between the chassis and the ground must be less than 1 ohm.
Grounding description
There are two kinds of grounding in a machine room: safe grounding and lightning prevention
grounding.
Safe grounding guarantees the safe of body and switch. A typical example is the AC protection
grounding of 3-core socket of power supply bank.
Lightning prevention grounding prevents lightning shock. The lightning prevention system of
general equipment is a separate system composed of lightning rod, down-conductor and
grounding system.
