QXS G2 (12G) Site Planning Guide
provides the QXS-312/412 12G chassis components/CRUs.
CAUTION:
The RAID chassis supports dual-controller configuration only.
- If a partner controller fails, the storage system will fail over and run on a single controller module
until the redundancy is restored.
- A RAID controller or expansion IOM must be installed in IOM slot to ensure sufficient air flow
through the chassis during operation.

: Redundant PSUs must be compatible modules of the same type (both AC). Power cords are
shipped with all chassis.
Controllers
2
:
•
The QXS-312 12G system has only 2-host ports per controller.
•
The QXS-412 12G system has 4-host ports per controller.
IOMs

: Bezels ship as follows:
•
The 2U12 chassis has a bezel shipped in a separate box and must be installed on site.
•
The 2U24 chassis has a bezel shipped in a separate box and must be installed on site.
•
The 5U84 chassis ships with the bezel installed.
Note: Ethernet cables are shipped with all RAID chassis.
