Description
Two Power Supply Module
Slots
These slots can be equipped with 3 kinds of additional modules. Only one power
supply module is included. Any additional modules should be bought separately.
DXS-3600-PWR-FB
(300W AC power supply tray with front-to-back
airflow)
DXS-3600-PWR-BF
(300W AC power supply tray with back-to-front
airflow)
DXS-3600-PWRDC-FB
(300W DC power supply tray with front-to-back
airflow)
Three Fan Module Slots
These slots can be equipped with 2 kinds of additional modules.
DXS-3600-FAN-FB
(Normal fan tray with front-to-back airflow)
DXS-3600-FAN-BF
(Normal fan tray with back-to-front airflow)
Power Supply Module
Connect the one end of the AC power cord supplied to the AC power connector and the other end into a properly
grounded electrical outlet. The switch will automatically adjust the power setting to adapt to any voltage supply in the
range from 100~240VAC at 50~60Hz.
In addition, an optional second power supply module can be plugged into the second power supply connector slot
displayed above. When the primary power connection fails, the secondary power connection will take over all the
power immediately and automatically. The primary and secondary power supply can be either AC supplied or DC
supplied, depending on the power supply module inserted. This makes it dual redundant.
The power supply modules are hot-swappable, meaning, that they can be inserted and removed while the switch is
powered on. This feature enhances the reliability, offers load-sharing, and enhances the reliability and capacity of this
switch. However, in the event that a power failure might occur in the environment and no UPS is used, as a precaution,
unplug the power cord from the switch. After the return of power, you can plug the power cord back into the Switch’s
power connector.
Fan Module
The fan modules on this switch can provide
front-to-back
or
back-to-front
airflow depending on type on fan module
installed. Another unique smart fan feature is that fans are capable to
automatically adjust their speed
depending
on the IC sensor reading of the temperature required. This feature is so sensitive that it can even
adjust the speed of
the fan
to accurately control the internal temperature.
