CAUTION
Disassembling any part of the power supply voids the part warranty and regulatory certifications. There
are no user-serviceable parts inside the power supply. The cooling system relies on pressurized air, do
not leave either of the power supply slots empty longer than two minutes when the switch is operating. If
a power supply fails, leave the power supply in the switch until it can be replaced. Maintain both power
supplies in operational condition to provide redundancy.
Table 1 on page 4 describes the power supply status LED colors, behaviors, and actions required, if any.
