Overview
The following figure shows the hardware features seen from the power supply side of the chassis.
Figure 2: Hardware Features on the Power Supply Side of the Chassis
1
Screw holes (2) for attaching a front-mount
bracket for four-post racks (one bracket on each
of two sides).
2
Screw holes (4) for attaching a center-mount rack
bracket for two-post racks (one bracket for each
of two sides).
3
A notch in both sides of the chassis for locking
the fan side of the chassis to the bottom-support
rails.
4
Screw holes (2) for attaching the grounding lug
to both sides of the chassis.
Depending on whether you plan to position the ports in a cold or hot aisle, you can order the fan and power
supply modules with port-side intake or port-side exhaust airflow. For port-side intake airflow, the fan and
AC power supply modules have burgundy coloring (DC power supply modules have green coloring). For
port-side exhaust airflow, the fan and AC power supplies have blue coloring (DC power supply modules have
gray coloring). You can also order the 1200-W HVAC/HVDC power supply which has dual-directional airflow
with white coloring. Dual-directional airflow modules determine and use the airflow direction of the other
modules in the switch.
The fan and power supply modules are field replaceable and you can replace one fan module or one power
supply module during operations so long as the other modules are installed and operating. If you have only
one power supply installed, you can install the replacement power supply in the open slot before removing
the original power supply.
5
Two power supplies (one used for operations and
one used for redundancy) (AC power supplies
shown) with power supply slot 1 on the left and
slot 2 on the right.
6
Two fan modules with fan slot 1 on the left and
fan slot 2 on the right.
