Page 97: Power
Section 8.3.2 “Replacing the RTU Assembly” on page 8-19 Power Supplies These systems offer redundant power supplies. The Sun Fire 6800 and Sun Fire 4810 systems use the same interchangeable power supplies. The Sun Fire 4800 system and the Sun Fire 3800 system each have specialized power supplies that cannot be interchanged with each other or with any other Sun Fire systems.
Page 98 Sun Fire 4810 Sun Fire 6800 There are four alternating current (AC) power cords for the Sun Fire 6800 system. There are three AC power cords for the Sun Fire 4810 and the Sun Fire 4800 systems. Each power supply in the Sun Fire 3800 system has its own power cord. The software monitors the status of the AC power source.

Page 235: Glossary
The I/O assembly contains I/O cards such as network cards. There are two styles of I/O assemblies: PCI and CompactPCI. There are four I/O assemblies in the Sun Fire 6800 system and two I/O assemblies in the Sun Fire 4810/4800/ 3800 systems. The Sun Fire 3800 system, which has two I/O assemblies, supports only the CompactPCI I/O assembly.
Page 236 I/O assemblies together. In the Sun Fire 4800 and Sun Fire 4810 systems, you need only one Repeater board. However, in the Sun Fire 6800 system, the Repeater boards work in pairs. In the Sun Fire 3800 system, the equivalent of two Repeater boards is integrated into the active centerplane.
