Product Description
Power/Standby Switch
Located at the upper right corner of the front of the disk system, the power switch
(D in Figure 1) interrupts DC power from the power supplies to the BCCs and
other internal components. Input AC power to the power supplies is controlled by
the power cords and the AC source.

■
Redundant, hot-pluggable, user-replaceable power supplies and BCCs
■
