Switch Components

The SilkWorm 4100 switch includes the following components:

• Cabinet-mountable 1U chassis designed to be mounted in a 19-inch cabinet space, with forced-

air cooling that flows from the nonport side of the switch to the port side.

• 32 Fibre Channel ports, compatible with short wavelength (SWL), long wavelength (LWL),

and extended long wavelength (ELWL) SFP transceivers.

• One RS-232 serial port on the port side of the switch (DB-9 connector)

• One IEEE-compliant RJ-45 connector on the port side of the switch for use with 10/100 MB/

sec Ethernet

• 64 port LEDs, 1 switch power LED, 1 switch status LED, 2 Ethernet LEDs, 2 power supply

LEDs, and 3 fan LEDs.

• Two universal AC input and redundant power supplies with AC switches and built-in fans.

• Three fan assemblies containing two fans each.

The fans have two speeds, which are set automatically and cannot be modified. They default to

high speed upon boot, then switch to low speed as Fabric OS comes online, returning to high

speed only as required.
