How to install Cisco 770 W Power Supply

• Power down the chassis only if your installation scenario requires it, or follow the vendor’s hot-swap guidance if you are performing a live replacement in a supported system.
• Identify the appropriate power supply bay in the Cisco chassis and confirm that the bay is ready to receive a 770 W module, with any required grounding precautions observed.
• Slide the 770 W power supply module into the correct bay until it seats firmly and engages with the chassis’s locking mechanism or engageable latches.
• Verify that the power connectors and any interconnects are securely connected, then re-seat any nearby modules if prompted by chassis fault-detection logic.
• Reconnect power to the system and monitor the status indicators or management console to confirm healthy operation; solid indicators typically reflect normal power delivery, while amber or red indicators indicate a fault that requires service.
• Run a quick functional check by observing system boot behavior and verifying that connected devices receive stable power, ensuring no alarms are triggered in the network management software.
