1.0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The power subsystem in the VCO/4K Open Programmable Switch consists of the following
main components:
•
Power entry module
•
Power backplane
•
Power supply module (two modules in redundant systems)
This subsystem is in the lower portion of the VCO/4K system. Figure 1 shows the front of a
redundant system with the door removed and two power supply modules visible. Figure 2
shows the power entry module in the rear of the system. The power backplane is located
internally, between the power supply modules and the power entry module.
The power subsystem powers the following:
•
Programmable switch logic
•
Disk storage units
