Acme Packet 6100 Hardware Installation Guide
The alarm LED on the front control panel indicates if any alarms are active on
the Acme Packet 6100. The LED can be three potential colors to indicate the
severity of the alarms:
Unlit — indicates the system is fully functional without any faults.
•
Amber — indicates that a major alarm has been generated.
•
Red — indicates that a critical alarm has been generated.
•
The alarm silence button clears the alarm table internally and opens the alarm
circuits connected to the network interface unit's alarm port.
The graphic display is a four-line VFD display window on the Acme Packet
6100 front control panel that reports real-time status, alarms, and general
system information.
Use the navigation buttons to navigate through the menus and information
visible on the graphic display.
Five individual intake fans keep the Acme Packet 6100 cool by blowing air
through the front panel and exhausting heated air through the rear of the
chassis. The intake fans are hot-pluggable and are covered by a particle filter
that prevents excess dust and contaminants from entering the system. The
particle filter is attached to the rear of the front bezel.

Power supplies and the network interface unit are located on the rear chassis
panel. Rear panel components are described in subsequent sections of this
chapter.
