Introduction Power supply The power supply converts standard 110 or 230 VAC to DC voltages for the various switch circuits. Four internal fans provide cooling. The switch monitors internal air temperature, and therefore does not monitor or report fan operational status. Air flows into the switch from the bezel side and is exhausted from the port side of the switch. To apply power to the switch, plug the power cord into the switch AC receptacle, and then into a 110 or 230 VAC power source. No

Introduction Heartbeat LED (green) The Heartbeat LED indicates the status of the internal switch processor and the results of the Power On Self Test (POST). Following a normal power-up, the Heartbeat LED blinks about once per second to indicate that the switch passed the POST and that the internal switch processor is running. In maintenance mode, the Heartbeat LED illuminates continuously. The Heartbeat LED also shows a blink code for POST errors and the over temperature condition. See “Hea

Introduction Maintenance button The Maintenance button is a dual-function momentary switch on the front panel. (Figure 1) Its purpose is to reset the switch or place the switch in maintenance mode. See “Maintenance mode options” on page 47 for more information. Resetting the switch Use a pointed tool, such as an opened paper clip, to momentarily press and release (less than 2 seconds) the Maintenance button. The switch responds as follows: ■ All chassis LEDs illuminate, and then the System F

Introduction Fibre Channel ports and LEDs The switch has eight Fibre Channel ports, numbered 0–7. (Figure 4) Each Fibre Channel port is served by a 2 Gbps Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) optical transceiver. SFPs are hot-pluggable. User ports self-discover both the port type and transmission speed of the connected devices. The Fibre Channel port LEDs are located above their respective ports and provide port log-in and activity status information. 1 2 3 1 Port Logged-in LED (green) 2 Port A

Introduction SFP transceivers The switch supports SFP optical transceivers for the Fibre Channel ports. A transceiver converts electrical signals to and from optical laser signals to transmit and receive data. Duplex fiber optic cables plug into the transceivers, which then connect to the devices. A Fibre Channel port is capable of transmitting at 1 Gbps or 2 Gbps; however, the transceiver must be capable of 2 Gbps for the port to deliver at that rate. SFP transceivers are hot pluggable. Thi
