How Many PSUs Do You Need?
The number of PSUs required depends on how many bays are in use.
If any five bays are in use (one switch controller bay and four line card bays, or
two switch controller bays and three line card bays), one PSU is sufficient.
Installing a second PSU provides
N+1
redundancy.
If six or more bays are in use (one switch controller bay and five line card bays,
or two switch controller bays and four line card bays), two PSUs are required.
In this case, installing a third PSU in the SwitchBlade CH8 chassis provides
N+1
redundancy.
