Connecting DC power

You can provide DC power for the Brocade MLX-4 router by installing a DC-to-DC power supply. The DC-to-DC supply converts
48V-DC input from a power sou ce to 12V-DC for your router.
The procedure in this section is for qualified service personnel.
NOTE
Because there are multiple power supply vendors, the LED layout on your DC power supply may differ from what is shown in
Figure 41. However, the LED functions are identical.
