Mediant 8000
5.2 PS/DC/8K Power Supply Module
PS/DC/8K Power Supply modules convert DC input voltage (that may be between -40
and -60 VDC) into DC used for local power inside the chassis. Three PS/DC/8K Power
Supply modules are installed in the front of the chassis – below the board slots.
PS/DC/8K Power Supply modules are hot-swappable.
