    System Status on page 9 Physical Interfaces The Force10 Networks S2410 is a Layer 2 switch that is available in two models — the S2410CP and the S2410P. The primary difference is that the S2410P contains 24 built-in 10-gigabit Ethernet (10G) XFP ports, while the S2410CP contains 20 built-in 10G BaseCX4 ports and four 10G XFP ports.
  • Page 8: Required Equipment

    The following items are necessary to install the S2410 system: • Two grounded AC power sources • At least one cable (included) to connect the power source to the S2410 AC power supply • Brackets and screws (included) for front-mounted rack installation (#2 Phillips screwdriver required but not included) •...

    System Status S2410 status data can be derived in several ways, including physical LED displays, discussed next, along show with boot menu options, CLI commands, SNMP traps, and the SFTOS Web User Interface. For details on those options, see the S2410 Quick Reference, the SFTOS Command Reference (SFTOS 2.4), and the SFTOS Configuration Guide (SFTOS 2.4).

    Note: Install the S2410 into a rack or cabinet before installing any optional components. Site Selection Make sure that the area where you install your S2410 chassis meets the following safety requirements: • Near an adequate power source. Connect the system to the appropriate branch circuit protection as defined by your local electrical codes.
  • Page 12: Cabinet Placement

    As listed in Table 2, “Status Panel LED Display,” on page 9, the front panel of the S2410 has an Alarm LED that includes alarms for fan problems and out-of-range temperatures. The LED is amber when the temperature or components are outside expected parameters, red in a major alarm.
  • Page 13: Power

    Both S2410 models (S2410CP and S2410P) provide built-in dual AC power supplies. Ideally, the power sources would be on separate circuits. While only one power supply is needed for the unit to operate, if both power supplies are connected, the power supplies act as redundant backups and do some load sharing, although the sharing is not necessarily equal.
