Power Supply Failure

The Switch 4510G use fixed power modules. Each of the Switch 4510G has three input modes, namely, AC input, RPS input and both.

You can check whether the power system of the switch fails by viewing the system status LED (PWR) and RPS status LED (RPS) on the front panel of the switch. For details, refer to Table 6-1.

AC input

If the system status LED is off, an AC input failure occurs. Then do the following:

Check whether the AC power cord is well connected to the switch, whether the AC receptacle on the switch and the AC power socket are faulty.

Check whether the external AC power supply system is normal.

Check whether the operating temperature of the switch is normal, and whether good ventilation is provided to the power supply (the power module may stop working and enter the protection state due to over-temperature).

RPS input

If the system status LED or RPS status LED is off, an RPS input failure occurs. Then do the following:

Check whether the switch is well connected to the external RPS power supply. Check whether the external RPS power supply works normally.

Check whether the operating temperature of the switch is normal, and whether good ventilation is provided to the power supply (the power module may stop working and enter the protection state due to over-temperature).

RPS&AC input

When the switch adopts both RPS and AC inputs , you can check the power supply status and the input status of each line by viewing the system status LED and RPS status LED.

1)The system status LED is off.

Both the AC input and RPS input are faulty. Then do the following:

Check whether the AC power cord is well connected to the switch, whether the AC receptacle on the switch and the AC power socket are faulty.

Check whether the AC external power supply system is normal.

Check whether the switch is well connected to the external RPS power supply. Check whether the external RPS power supply works normally.
