Power

The AC-powered G8124E has dual load-sharing internal power modules, 50 - 60 Hz, 100 -

240 VAC auto-switching per module.
The DC-powered G8124E has dual load-sharing internal -48 V DC power supplies, input

voltage ranging from 42 V dc to 60 V dc per module.
The nominal power for the G8124E ranges from 115 W to 168 W depending on the speed of

the port (1G/10G), type of transceivers (SR or DAC), and number of active ports.
Mean time between failures (MTBF): 189,060 hrs with ambient operating temperature of 40ºC

MTBF is calculated using the Telcordia Technologies Reliability Prediction Procedure for
Electronic Equipment (SR-332 issue 2), Parts Count (method 1 case 1) failure rate data.
