H3C S5120-EI Series - Power Supply Failure

6-2
Power Supply Failure
The S5120-EI series switches use fixed power modules. Each of these fixed power modules has three
input modes, namely, AC input, RPS input and both.
You can check whether the power system of the switch fails by viewing the system status LED (PWR)
and RPS status LED (RPS) on the front panel of the switch. For details, refer to
Table 6-1.

PWR Off The switch is powered off.
Steady green
The AC input is normal, and the RPS is in the position or
works normally.
Steady yellow
RPS input is normal, but AC input fails or AC input is not
connected.

Steady green The AC input and the RPS input work normally.
Steady yellow
The RPS input is normal, but the AC input fails or AC input
is not connected.

AC input
When the switch adopts AC input, you can check the power supply status by viewing the system status
LED. If the system status LED is off, an AC input failure occurs. Then do the following:
z Check whether the AC power cord is well connected to the switch, whether the AC receptacle on
the switch and the AC power socket are faulty.
z Check whether the external AC power supply system is normal.
z Check whether the operating temperature of the switch is normal, and whether good ventilation is
provided to the power supply (the power module may stop working and enter the protection state
due to over-temperature).
RPS input
When the switch adopts RPS input, you can check the power supply status by viewing the system
status LED or RPS status LED. If the system status LED or RPS status LED is off, an RPS input failure
occurs. Then do the following:
z Check whether the switch is well connected to the external RPS power supply.
z Check whether the external RPS power supply works normally.
z Check whether the operating temperature of the switch is normal, and whether good ventilation is
provided to the power supply (the power module may stop working and enter the protection state
due to over-temperature).
RPS&AC input
When the switch adopts both RPS and AC inputs, you can check the power supply status and the input
status of each line by viewing the system status LED and RPS status LED.
