Important points
The S6100–ON is designed to support two hot-swappable power supplies with integrated fans that provide cooling for the chassis.
• The S6100–ON ships with two power supplies.
• The PSU slides into the slot smoothly. Do not force the PSU into a slot as this action may damage the PSU or the S6100-ON chassis.
• The S6100–ON supports AC and DC power supplies with two air-ow directions—I/O to PSU and PSU to I/O. The S6100–ON does
not support mixing PSU types. The fan airow direction for the PSUs must be the same.
• Module power is software controlled. You do not see module LEDs when the system powers up.
CAUTION
: DO NOT mix airow directions. Both power supplies must use the same airow direction—I/O to PSU or PSU to I/O.
WARNING: Although the switch can run on one PSU, Dell highly recommends using two PSUs for full redundancy and extra
cooling. To avoid overheating when the switch is running with a single PSU, install the second PSU.
WARNING: ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap
when handling the S6100–ON and its components.
WARNING: To prevent electrical shock, ensure that the S6100–ON is grounded properly. If you ground your equipment
incorrectly, excessive emissions may result. To ensure that the power cables meet your local electrical requirements, use a
qualied electrician.
