Removing and Installing the Power Supply

This section describes the AC and DC power supplies and how to install and remove them. It contains the following topics:

•Understanding the Power Supplies, page 6-15

•Removing and Installing the AC Power Supply, page 6-17

•Installing DC Input Power, page 6-20

•Removing and Installing the DC Power Supply, page 6-25

Understanding the Power Supplies

The IPS 4345 ships with one fixed fan and one fixed power supply (AC or DC) installed. The IPS 4360 ships with one power supply (AC or DC) installed. You can add an additional power supply or you can order the IPS 4360 with two power supplies installed. Having two power supplies installed provides a redundant power option. This configuration ensures that if one power supply fails, the other power supply assumes the full load until the failed power supply is replaced. To maintain airflow, an empty bay must be covered or both bays must be populated with power supplies. If only one power supply is installed, make sure that it is installed in slot 0 (left slot) and that slot 1 (right slot) is covered with a slot cover. If only one power supply is installed, do not remove the power supply unless the appliance has been powered off. Removing the only operational power supply causes an immediate power loss.

Note The IPS 4360 can support two AC or two DC power supplies. Do not mix AC and DC power supply units in the same chassis.

IPS4520K9 specifications

Cisco Systems has long been a leading player in network security, and its IPS (Intrusion Prevention System) series is a testament to its commitment to safeguarding digital environments. Among its notable offerings are the IPS4510K9 and IPS4520K9 models, both designed to provide advanced threat protection for mid-sized to large enterprise networks.

The Cisco IPS4510K9 and IPS4520K9 are distinguished by their cutting-edge features that help organizations defend against a myriad of cyber threats. These systems utilize a multi-layered approach to security, integrating intrusion prevention, advanced malware protection, and comprehensive visibility across the network.

One of the primary characteristics of the IPS4510K9 is its high performance. It boasts a throughput of up to 1 Gbps, making it suitable for environments that demand rapid data processing and real-time responses to threats. The IPS4520K9, on the other hand, enhances that capability with improved throughput of up to 2 Gbps, accommodating larger enterprises with heavier network traffic. These models are equipped with powerful processors that support complex signature matching and can intelligently distinguish between legitimate traffic and potential threats.

In addition to performance, both models are designed with scalability in mind. They can be easily integrated into existing Cisco infrastructures. This facilitates a seamless enhancement of security without causing significant interruptions to ongoing operations. Moreover, they offer flexible deployment options, allowing organizations to operate them inline or out of band depending on their specific needs.

The Cisco IPS4510K9 and IPS4520K9 leverage advanced detection technologies, utilizing a variety of signature types and heuristic analysis to detect known and unknown threats effectively. They are equipped with real-time alerting and reporting capabilities, giving security teams immediate visibility into potential breaches and enabling them to respond swiftly.

Furthermore, both models support a range of management options through the Cisco Security Manager, allowing for centralized administration, streamlined policy management, and enhanced monitoring capabilities. Automated updates ensure the systems remain current with the latest threat intelligence, vital for staying ahead of evolving cyber threats.

In summary, the Cisco Systems IPS4510K9 and IPS4520K9 represent powerful solutions for organizations seeking robust intrusion prevention capabilities. With their high performance, scalability, and advanced detection technologies, these systems are essential tools in the ever-changing landscape of cybersecurity, providing enterprises with the peace of mind needed to operate securely in today's digital world.
