Ac Power Connector - Foundry Networks Switch and Router Installation And Configuration Manual

AC Power Connector

The AC power connector is located at the rear of the Foundry Stackable devices.
• If a redundant supply is installed, the rear panel contains two AC connectors.
• If only one power supply is resident, the second power supply plug opening is hidden by a safety cover.
On Chassis devices, the power supplies are accessible from the front of the chassis, and the power supply
connector is embedded within the power supply. The green LED on the power supply is lit when the power supply
is properly supplying 5-volt power to the system.
Buffering
Foundry Stackable devices provide a pool of 2 Megabytes (MB) of buffering memory for their ports. Buffering
memory for each chassis module is also 2 MB.
Fans
Each Foundry Stackable device comes standard with two fans to provide additional cooling for the internal
components of the device.
The TurboIron/8 comes standard with four fans.
The 4-slot Chassis devices come with four fans. The 8-slot and 15-slot Chassis devices come with six fans.
LEDs
Each Foundry device is equipped with LEDs that denote port and power supply status. The tables below reflect
the different port and expansion module port states.
Stackable
All currently shipping Stackable devices come equipped with three LEDs per Ethernet port, as highlighted in Table
9.1 below. Earlier Stackable devices shipped with two port LED indicators. These LEDs are defined in Table 9.2.
Standard and expansion Gigabit Ethernet ports have two LED indicators, as defined in Table 9.3.
