Task 14: Plan AC Power
McDATA Products in a SAN Environment - Planning Manual
6-28
Plan for facility power sources for each Fabricenter equipment
cabinet, director, fabric switch, or SAN router as follows:
•
The Fabricenter equipment cabinet operates at 47 to 63 Hertz
(Hz), 200 to 240 volts alternating current (VAC), and requires a
minimum dedicated 30-ampere service.
•
The Intrepid 6140 Director operates at 47 to 63 Hz, 200 to 240
VAC, and requires a minimum dedicated 15-ampere service.
•
The Intrepid 10000 Director operates at 47 to 63 Hz, 200 to 240
VAC, and requires a minimum dedicated 20-ampere service.
•
Other directors, fabric switches, and SAN routers in the cabinet
operate at 47 to 63 Hz, 100 to 240 VAC, and require a minimum
dedicated 5-ampere service.
If two power sources are supplied (optional but recommended for
high availability), the equipment cabinet contains two customer-
specified external power cords. Each cord should be connected to a
separate power circuit, or both should be connected to a UPS. Several
types of power cables and plugs are available to meet local electrical
requirements.
DANGER
Use the supplied power cords. Ensure the facility power receptacle
is the correct type, supplies the required voltage, and is properly
grounded.
Keep all power cables out of high-traffic areas for safety and to avoid
power interruption caused by accidentally unplugging the product or
Fabricenter equipment cabinet.
