Fiber Optic Modules
Table 6.7 in the chapter “Hardware Specifications” lists the types of fiber optic modules (SFPs and XFPs)
supported on Foundry’s FGS devices.
Table 2.1 lists the description that displays in the output of the show media command for each media type.
Power Supplies
Each FGS device comes with one alternating-current (AC) power supply (part number RPS-FGS) or direct-current
(DC) power supply (part number RPSDC-FGS), depending on how it was ordered from the factory. All models
have two power supply slots, enabling you to install a second power supply for redundancy (if applicable) or for
additional POE power. You can use any combination of AC and DC supplies in the same device.
Figure 2.12 shows the AC power supply used with the FastIron GS.

Figure 2.13 shows the DC power supply used with the FastIron GS.

The power supplies are auto-sensing and auto-switching. The supplies provide 600 watts of total output power,
including +12VDC @ 10A to the system and -48VDC@ 10A for Power over Ethernet applications. The supplies
provide 100-240 VAC input, 50-60Hz @ 8A to 3.2A.
The power supplies can be swapped in or out of the device while the device is running. You can remove and insert
a power supply without opening the chassis. If the device contains redundant power supplies, you can remove
