Power supplies
The S4048–ON ships with one AC power supply. Dell recommends purchasing a second power supply.
The S4048–ON supports AC power supplies with two air-flow directions, normal and reverse. Normal is from the I/O-side to the PSU-side.
Reverse is from the PSU-side to the I/O-side. Two PSUs are required for full redundancy, but the system can operate with a single PSU.
The PSUs are field replaceable. When running with full redundancy—two power supplies installed and running, you can remove and replace
one PSU without disrupting traffic.
NOTE:
If you use a single PSU, install a blank plate in the other PSU slot. Dell Networking recommends using power supply 2
(PSU2) as the blank plate slot.
NOTE:
ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when
handling the S4048–ON and its components.
CAUTION:
To prevent electrical shock, ensure that the S4048-ON is grounded properly. If you do not ground your equipment
correctly, excessive emissions may result. Use a qualified electrician to ensure that the power cables meet your local electrical
requirements.
