Features Hot Swapping To reduce network downtime, a power supply may be hot swapped. When multiple power supplies are installed, this allows the removal of one power supply without powering down the chassis and interrupting network traffic. The K6-FAN Chassis Cooling System The K6 chassis features a removable fan tray that is accessible from the front of the chassis. This fan tray is hot swappable, which allows it to be replaced without powering down the chassis. The FAN LED on the K‐Series fabric card indicates the status of the fan tray (normal/fault/not installed). Refer to “Fabric Card LEDs” on page 4‐1 for a full description of the FAN LED states. Standalone or Rack Mountable Chassis The K6 chassis can be installed as a freestanding unit on a shelf or table. The K6 chassis can also be mounted into a standard 48.26‐centimeter (19‐inch) equipment rack. In a rack installation, the K6 chassis can be either front mounted or mid‐mounted. To mid‐mount a K6 chassis, you must use the K‐Series mid‐mount brackets that are available separately. Refer to Chapter 2, Installation Requirements and Guidelines for requirements on ventilation and cooling. Power over Ethernet (PoE) Each K‐AC‐PS‐1400W power supply installed in the K6 chassis provides 400 watts (at 120V) and 800 watts (at 240V) for PoE to powered devices (PDs). For additional PoE power, you can also connect one more K‐AC‐PS‐1400W supply, installed in the K‐POE‐4BAY PoE shelf, to the K6 chassis. Chassis Management The K6 chassis is managed through the COM port on the K‐Series fabric card. Use the USB port on the K‐Series fabric card to upgrade the chassis and upload and download files, such as configuration files and firmware images.

PoE Port Status LEDs PoE Port Status LEDs The PoE port status of each 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 port on a K‐Series line card is indicated by the two‐color RX and TX LED display for each port. To observe the PoE port status indications, you must switch the K‐Series line card from the default RX/ TX Status Mode to the PoE Port Status Mode using the red POE button on the K‐Series fabric card. Allocation of PoE Power to Devices You can install up to four K‐AC‐PS‐1400W power supplies in the K6 chassis. Each K‐AC‐PS‐ 1400W power supply installed in the K6 chassis provides from 400 watts (at 120V) to 800 watts (at 240V) of PoE power to powered devices (PDs) attached to the 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports on the installed K‐Series line cards. For additional PoE power, you can connect one K‐AC‐PS‐1400W power supply, installed in a K‐ POE‐4BAY PoE shelf, to the K6 chassis. This K‐AC‐PS‐1400W power supply also provides from 400 watts (at 120V) to 800 watts (at 240V) of additional PoE power for powered devices (PDs) attached to the 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports on the installed K‐Series line cards. The K‐Series firmware determines the power available for PoE based on power supply status and power supply redundancy mode. When any change is made to the power supply status or redundancy mode, the firmware recalculates the power available for PoE. The power available for PoE is distributed based on the configured allocation mode: • Automatic mode (default), in which available power is distributed evenly. Any change in available power, due to a change in power supply status or redundancy mode, will trigger an automatic redistribution of power. • Manual mode, in which the power budget is manually configured, using either CLI commands or the MIBs. The wattage configured cannot exceed the total power available on the switch for PoE. The configured wattage assignment is used to calculate the total available PoE power. If the total available PoE power changes, a redistribution of available power will occur, applying the ...
