Page 16: Type 3 (325 W) Power Module - 3C16075
1: I HAPTER NTRODUCING THE Type 3 (325 W) Power Module — 3C16075 This module is suitable for powering a specific range of SuperStack units. See Appendix C for a list of these units. This module provides +27 V through the connector. A Type 3 DC power cable is supplied with each module. -
Page 17: Type 2 Dc Cables
Figure 5 Type 1 DC ‘Y’ Cable (3C16079) Type 2 DC Cables Use a Type 2 DC cable, supplied with each Type 2A Power Module, to connect a Type 2A Power Module to a SuperStack unit. An optional Type 2 ’Y’ DC cable (3C16078) is available to connect two Type 2A Power Modules to a SuperStack unit for full redundancy. -
Page 18: Using The Advanced Rps
1: I HAPTER NTRODUCING THE Figure 7 Type 3 DC ‘Y’ Cable (3C16077) Using the Advanced RPS There are several ways you can use the Advanced RPS to benefit your network and protect against internal PSU failure on your SuperStack units. -
Page 19: Full Redundancy
Using the Advanced RPS The SuperStack unit is supplied with power from an AC mains supply. A power module is connected using the standard DC cable to the RPS socket on the SuperStack unit (see Figure 9). If the internal power supply fails, the SuperStack unit enables the Advanced RPS. - Page 20 1: I HAPTER NTRODUCING THE DVANCED Make sure you use the correct type of ’Y’ cable for the right module combination. See “Power Modules” on page 15 for front views of the different connectors. If one of the power modules fails, the other module will take the full load.
- Page 21 NSTALLING CAUTION: The Type 3 DC Power Module is for installation by suitably qualified service personnel only. Refer to the Type 3 Power Module Installation Guide.

Page 22: Installing The Advanced Rps
Water or moisture cannot enter the case of the unit. Air flow around the unit and through the vents in the side of the case is not restricted (3Com recommend that you provide a minimum of 75-mm (3-in.) clearance). To prolong the operational life of your units: Never stack units more than eight high on top of the Advanced RPS. -
Page 23: Rack Mounting
The rack must be well ventilated — 3Com recommend using an open frame type. 3Com recommend that runners or a tray be fitted in the rack to support the weight of the Advanced RPS chassis when installed into the rack. -
Page 24: Placing Units On Top Of Each Other
2: I HAPTER NSTALLING 6 Connect all cables. Placing Units On Top of Each Other CAUTION: Do not place the Advanced RPS alongside your SuperStack RPS. You may stack up to eight of the allowable units (see Appendix C) in a free-standing stack or, if runners or a tray give extra support, on a rack-mounted Advanced RPS. -
Page 25: Power Supply And Fuses
Refer to the Advanced RPS Type 3 Power Module Installation Guide and Advanced RPS Type 3 ‘Y’ Cable Installation Guide. Details of the permissible combinations of modules and 3Com products are given in Appendix C and the user guide which accompanies the modules. -
Page 26: Standard Dc Cables
2: I HAPTER NSTALLING CAUTION: The Type 3 DC Power Module is for installation by suitably qualified service personnel only. Refer to the Type 3 Power Module Installation Guide. CAUTION: Only use the cables designed for the power module you are installing. -
Page 27: Powering Up The Advanced Rps
Powering Up the Advanced RPS Once the Advanced RPS is in place, you can power up the unit. 1 Connect the AC power cord(s) to the power sockets (mains AC power inlets) at the rear of the RPS. The chassis will always draw power through mains inlet A (labelled Primary Pwr A) in preference to inlet B (labelled Backup Pwr B). -
Page 28: Connecting An Uninterruptible Power System (Ups)
CAUTION: It is important that, if you use a UPS to supply the Advanced RPS, you use only one UPS output to supply the RPS. The 3Com UPS will supply 325 W input power. Hence the maximum output DC power of the Advanced RPS is reduced to about 200 W. -
Page 29: Safety Information
AFETY NFORMATION You must read the following safety information before carrying out any installation or removal of components, or any maintenance procedures on the SuperStack 3 Advanced RPS. WARNING: Warnings contain directions that you must follow for your personal safety. Follow all directions carefully. You must read the following safety information carefully before you install or remove the unit. - Page 30 A: S PPENDIX AFETY determine loading limitations. It is important that the loading limitations are not exceeded. Connect the unit to an earthed power supply to ensure compliance with safety standards. It is essential that the socket outlet is installed near to the unit and is easily accessible.
- Page 31 3Com require that you confirm that your chassis supports the dual phase feature by checking that “3C16071A” or “3C16071B” appears on the serial number label on the base of the chassis, the front panel overlay, and also on the packaging label.
