• Red—Port-side intake airflow
• Blue—Port-side exhaust airflow
The switch supports PSUs of only one airflow type at a time. Both PSUs have to be either port-side
exhaust, or port-side intake PSUs.
Note: The direction of PSU airflow must match the direction of the fan module airflow.
For more information on installing and removing PSUs, see Installing and Removing Power Supplies.
