The front panel includes the following features:
• Arrow-shaped LEDs in center horizontal strip for all ports. LEDs to the left support the top
ports, LEDs to the right (pointing down) support the bottom ports.
• Twenty four 10G Ethernet ports
Table 5 describes the LEDs for the BR-MLX-10Gx24-DM interface modules.
Power supply requirements for BR-MLX-10Gx24-DM modules
For power supply requirements for BR-MLX-10Gx24-DM interface modules, refer to Chapter 8,
“Hardware Specifications”.
8x10GE-X interface modules
The 8x10GE-X interface modules provide 8 ports of 10 Gigabit Ethernet with support for up to 1M
IPv4 routes in hardware.
Gen-2 8x10GE-X modules require high speed switch fabric modules to operate. You can replace
switch fabric modules with high-speed switch fabric modules while the system is powered on and
running. For more information about high-speed switch fabric modules, refer to “High-speed switch
fabric modules” on page 33.
For Brocade XMR 16-slot routers, 8x10GE-X modules require the installation of high-speed fans in
addition to high-speed switch fabric modules. For information about the high-speed fans, see
“NIBI-16-FAN-EXH-A high-speed fan assemblies” on page 40.
Figure 13 shows the faceplate of the 8x10GE-X module.
