Power Supplies - Brocade Communications Systems FESX624HF Installation Manual

Power supplies

Each FastIron compact switch comes with one alternating-current (AC) or direct-current (DC) power supply, depending on how it was
ordered from the factory. All models have two power supply slots, enabling you to install a second power supply for redundancy.
Direct-current (DC) supplies are available for some devices, in which you can use any combination of AC and DC supplies in the same
device. The following table lists the power supplies that may be installed in a FastIron compact switch.
Table 4 and Table 5 show which Brocade power supply can be installed on each Brocade FastIron compact product.
NOTE
You can interchange power supplies, but you must adhere to the compatibility matrix shown in the tables below.
NOTE
Changes or modifications made to this device that are not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user's authority to operate the equipment.

The power supplies can be swapped in or out of the device while the device is running. You can remove and insert a power supply without
opening the device. If the device contains non-POE redundant power supplies, you can remove one of the supplies without interrupting
operation. The remaining supply provides enough power for all the ports.
