ICX 6400-EPS1500 external power supply

In the event of an AC power loss or internal power supply device failure, the Brocade ICX
6400-EPS1500 external power supply can be used as a backup power source to a device when any
of the three ports are connected to an ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 device. Proprietary DC cables are
used to connect any of the three EPS ports of the ICX 6400-EPS1500 to the rear EPS port of an ICX
6430 or ICX 6450 device. For more information about connecting an ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 device
to the ICX 6400-EPS1500, refer to,
Each EPS port provides an external 12 V redundant system power source (up to 65 W), and an
external 54 V additional PoE power source (up to 370 W). When the ICX 6400-EPS1500 is
connected to an ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 non-PoE device, it operates as an external redundant power
supply to the devices. In this case, only the 12 V of the EPS port is utilized by the device. The 54 V
PoE power source is not used by the device.
NOTE
The internal power supply of the ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 device is not a field-replaceable unit (FRU).
The devices must be shut down by administrators for replacement.
