be echoed to both the USB console and the rear panel RJ45 serial port; however, no user input will be
accepted from the rear panel port.
Cooling
Each base model is available with front-to-back cooling.
Switch cooling is provided by replaceable fan modules. The available fan module uses airflow from front
to back. Two modular power supply slots accommodate AC power supplies. Power supplies have
integrated cooling fans that operate independently of the switch fan.
A spare fan module (XN-FAN-002-F) with front-to-back airflow is available for X465 switches.
Power Supplies
Two power supply bays accommodate AC power supplies. Power supplies have integrated cooling fans
that operate independently of the switch fans. When selecting power supplies to use in the X465 series,
the airflow of the power supply must be front to back. When using two power supplies in an X465
switch that both power supplies should be the same wattage. For more information about the power
supplies used in the X465 switches, see Replaceable Internal Power Supplies on page 130.
Power supplies are ordered separately.
Caution
Air must flow in the same direction for all installed fan modules and power supplies in a
switch.
