NoteBecause of the form-factor difference, when you install an 8700 W power supply in a Catalyst 6506, 
Catalyst 6509, or Catalyst 6509-NEB chassis you must relocate the system ground connection from the 
chassis ground pad connection to the two system ground studs located on the 8700 W power supply 
faceplate. Installing an 8700 W power supply in the other Catalyst...
