External Controls
The control module has the following external controls. Where appropriate, this guide
describes how to use the controls.

connection from a management terminal. The port is configured as a Media Data
Interface (MDI). Use this port to establish a management connection to the XP over a
local or bridged Ethernet segment.
•

AC Power Supply
The power supply delivers 3.3, 5, and 12 DC volts to the XP's control module(s), fan
modules, and other components. A single power supply provides enough current to
operate a fully configured chassis. The power supply has its own internal cooling fan. The
vent on the front of the power supply is the inlet vent for the cooling fan.
