AT-SBxPWRSYS1 DC Power Supply

The AT-SBxPWRSYS1 DC Power Supply, shown in Figure 25, is a DC version of the power supply unit for the chassis and may be used in place of the AT-SBxPWRSYS1 AC Power Supply in network environments that have DC wiring. Like the AC power supply, the module supplies power to all the hardware components in the chassis, except for the PoE feature on the ports on the AT-SBx81GP24 Line Cards.

A single AT-SBxPWRSYS1 Power Supply can support a fully populated chassis, with any combination of Ethernet line cards. The chassis can have two AT-SBxPWRSYS1 Power Supplies for power redundancy.

Power supply modules are not included with the chassis and must be purchased separately.

The AT-SBxPWRSYS1 Power Supplies are installed in the two right hand slots, labeled C and D, at the top of the front of the chassis. If you are installing just one power supply, you may install it in either slot. The locations of the slots are shown in Figure 6 on page 23.

The AT-SBxPWRSYS1 Power Supply is hot swappable. If a chassis has two power supplies and one of them fails, you may replace the failed unit without having to power off the chassis.

Note

The AT-SBxPWRSYS1 DC Power Supply is not compatible with the AT-SBxPWRSYS1 AC and AT-SBxPWRPOE1 AC Power Supplies. Consequently, the chassis should not contain both AC and DC power supplies. You may, however, operate the chassis for a short period of time with AC and DC power supplies if you are converting it from one type of power supply to another, such as from AC to DC. This allows you to transition the chassis without having to power it off.
