Power

Supply

Slots

–

At

least

one

PSMAC

must

be

installed

in

a

slot

for

the

unit

to

operate.

The

top

slot

is

designated

PS1

and

the

bottom

slot

is

PS2.

For

full

redundancy,

power

supplies

can

be

installed

in

both

slots.

These

slots

support

‘hot

swapping’

of

the

supplies.

They

correspond

to

directly

below.

in

this

slot.

These

slots

conform

to

the

SFP

MSA

(INF

in

this

manual).

They

are

fixed

bi

ports

and

cannot

support

dual

or

dual

SFPs.

Any

can

be

used

in

these

slots

including

but

not

to

optical

modules

with

data

rates

in

the

range

of

155Mbps

to

3.0Gbps,

Ethernet

copper

modules,

copper

modules,

copper

etc.

Each

is

independent

and

will

accept

any

format

and

any

that

is

appropriate

for

the

Aggregate

Fiber

Connection

–

A

Neutrik™

opticalCON

DUO

connector

provides

a

bi

‐

directional

singlemode

fiber

interface

to

the

aggregated

I/O

of

the

CWDM.

This

optical

signal

carries

the

data

using

all

16(8)

wavelengths

internally

allocated

to

the

16(8)

external

SFP

cages.

This

optical

signal

is

not

compatible

with

single

wavelength

passive

or

active

optical

devices.

The

opticalCON

DUO

provides

for

or

a

serves

the

same

as

the
