SwitchBlade x3112 Installation Guide

Installing the AT-SBx3161 System Power Supply

The SwitchBlade x3112 can host up to four power supplies consisting of two AT-SBx3161 System Power Supplies and two AT-SBx3165 PoE Power Supplies. The AT-SBx3112 Chassis comes with three blank power supply panels in chassis slots A, B, and C as displayed in Figure 33. Slot D is left open for the installation of the first AT-SBx3161 System Power Supply. Keep the blank power supply panels in place on the unused slots to insure proper chassis airflow.

Figure 33. Slots A to D for System and PoE Power Supplies

To install the AT-SBx3161 power supply, perform the following procedure:

1.Choose a slot in the chassis for the AT-SBx3161 System Power Supply. You can install the system power supply in either slot C or D. If this is the initial installation of the chassis, Allied Telesis recommends slot D because it does not have a blank power supply panel installed.

2.If you want to install the power supply in slot C, remove the blank power supply panel by lifting the blank panel handle and lifting the panel out of the slot.

Note

If you are installing one power supply and choose slot C, then install the blank power supply panel that came from slot C and install it in slot D to insure proper chassis airflow. Close the handle to secure it in to the chassis.

Warning

The AT-SBx3161 System Power Supply contains active electronic devices, which can be damaged by electro-static discharges (ESD). Follow the procedure given in “Protection Against Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)” on page 60 to guard against ESD damage when unpacking and installing these power supplies.
