Power Supplies Redundant, load-sharing power supplies step down and rectify
facility input power to provide 3.3 VDC (volts direct current), 5 VDC,
and 12 VDC to the switch electronics. The power supplies also
provide input filtering, overvoltage protection, and overcurrent
protection. Either power supply can be replaced while the switch is
operational.
Each power supply has a separate power switch and a CTP
subsystem connection to allow for different AC power sources. The
power supplies are input rated up to 264 VAC (volts alternating
current). A green LED at the upper left corner of each power supply
illuminates if the power supply is operational and receiving AC
power.
Maintenance Port The rear panel provides a 9-pin D-type subminiature maintenance
port that provides a connection for a local terminal or dial-in
connection for a remote terminal.
The maintenance port is typically used by authorized maintenance
personnel, and can be used to configure switch network addresses,
such as the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address.
