FEATURES
The following provides an overview of the chassis features.
Matrix N7 Chassis Modules
The Matrix N7 chassis has seven slots for the new Matrix DFE series of modules.
Redundant Power Supplies
The Matrix N7 chassis supports two 6C207-3 power supplies that reside in the lower section of the
chassis, in slots labeled PS1 and PS2. The second power supply provides redundancy and load
sharing.
6C207-3
The 6C207-3 is a 1600-Watt power supply, which has two front-panel ac input power connectors.
The type of power cords shipped with the unit is country-dependent. Each power cord must be
plugged into an independent power circuit.
The 6C207-3 is capable of load sharing 50% (+/- 5%) of the Matrix N7 chassis power load. If one
power supply fails, the other power supply supports the entire load of the chassis without
interruption to network traffic. Refer to
Section 2.1
for power outlet requirements.
Power Supply LANVIEW LEDs
Each power supply comes equipped with LANVIEW
®
LEDs for at-a-glance diagnostics that
indicate individual power supply status and overall chassis redundancy status. Refer to
Chapter 2
,
Installation Requirements and Guidelines
, for a full explanation of the power supply LEDs and
their definitions.
NOTE:
The Matrix N7 chassis supports the DFE (Distributed Forwarding Engine)
7xxxxx series of modules and does not support the older 6x1xx, 6x2xx, and 6x3xx
series of modules.
NOTE:
Both power cords must be connected to the 6C207-3 for it to operate, and
connected to two independent ac power sources to handle the input power
requirements.
