Replacing a Fan Module
You can replace a fan module while the switch is operating so long as you perform the replacement within
one minute. If you cannot perform the replacement within one minute, leave the original fan module in the
chassis to maintain the designed airflow until you have the replacement fan module on hand and can perform
the replacement.
If you are replacing a module during operations, be sure that the replacement fan module has the correct
direction of airflow, which means that it has the same airflow direction as the other modules in the chassis.
Also, be sure that the airflow direction takes in air from a cold aisle and exhausts to a hot aisle. Otherwise,
the switch can overheat and shutdown.
If you are changing the airflow direction of all the modules in the chassis, you must shutdown the switch
before replacing all the fan and power supply modules with modules using the other airflow direction. During
operations, all of the modules must have the same direction of airflow.
Caution
Removing a Fan Module
Statement 263—Fan Warning
The fans might still be turning when you remove the fan assembly from the chassis. Keep fingers, screwdrivers,
and other objects away from the openings in the fan assembly's housing.
Warning
Step 1 On the fan module that you are removing, press the two sides of the fan module handle next to where it connects to the
fan module and pull on the handles enough to unseat it from its connectors.
Step 2 Holding the handle, pull the module out of the chassis.

Do not touch the electrical connectors on the back side of the module and prevent anything else from coming
into contact with and damaging the connectors.
Caution
Installing a Fan Module
Before you begin
• A fan slot must be open and ready for the new fan module to be installed.
• You must have a new fan module on hand and ready to install within one minute of removing the original
fan module if the switch is operating.
• The new fan module must have the same airflow direction as the other fan and power supply modules
installed in the switch.
Step 1 Holding the fan module by its handle, align the back of the fan module (the side with the electrical connectors) to the
open fan slot in the chassis.
Step 2 Slide the fan module into the slot until it clicks in place.
Step 3 Verify that the Status (STS) LED turns on and becomes green.
Replacing a Power Supply Module
The switch requires two power supplies for redundancy. With one power supply providing the necessary
power for operations, you can replace the other power supply during operations so long as the new power
supply has the same airflow direction as the other modules in the chassis.
You can replace a power supply with another supported power supply that has the same power source type
and the same wattage rating as the other installed power supply. Additionally, the airflow direction of the
power supply must match or conform to the airflow direction of the installed fan modules. For the airflow
direction used by the switch, see the coloring of the fan modules.
Removing an AC Power Supply
To remove an AC power supply, you must first disconnect the power cable and then remove the module from
the chassis.
Before you begin
• To replace a power supply during operations, you must have a functioning power supply providing power
to the switch while you replace the other power supply. If there is only one power supply installed in the
switch and you need to replace it, install the new power supply in the open slot and power it up before
removing the original power supply.
• Ensure that the chassis is grounded. For grounding instructions, see Grounding the Chassis.

Step 2 Remove the power supply from the chassis by pushing and holding its thumb latch to the left and pulling the power supply
part way out of the chassis.
Step 3 Place your other hand under the power supply to support it while you slide it out of the chassis.
Either place the power supply on an antistatic surface or pack it in its packing materials.
Step 4 If the power supply slot is to remain empty, install a blank power supply filler panel (part number N2200-P-BLNK).
What to do next
You are ready to install the replacement power supply.
Removing an HVAC/HVDC Power Supply
You can remove one power supply while the other one provides power to the switch.
To disconnect the power supply from its power cables, you must shut off the power from the power source
and then either disconnect a connector for the power cables or release each of three cables from the power
supply (requires a standard screw driver).
Step 1 Turn off the circuit breaker for the power feed to the power supply that you are replacing.
Be sure that the LEDs turn off on the power supply that you are removing.
Step 2 Remove the power cable from the power supply by pressing the tab on the top of the Anderson Power SAF-D-Grid
connector and pull the cable and connector out of the power supply.
Step 3 Grasp the power supply handle while pressing the release latch towards the power supply handle.

What to do next
You are ready to install a DC power supply in the open slot.
Installing an AC Power Supply
You can replace one power supply while the other one provides power to the switch.
Before you begin
• The power supply that you are installing must be capable of using the same airflow direction as the fan
trays installed in the same switch and it must use the same type of power source as the other power supply
installed in the same switch (do not mix AC and DC power supplies in the same switch).
If the power supply that you are replacing has a different color handle
than the replacement power supply, verify that it has or will have the
same airflow direction as the other modules in the switch.
Note
• An AC power source must be within reach of the power cable that will be used with the replacement
power supply. If you are using n+npower redundancy, there must be a separate power source for each
power supply installed in the chassis. Otherwise, only one power source is required.
• There must be an earth ground connection to the chassis that you are installing the replacement module.
Typically, the chassis is grounded by its metal-to-metal connection with a grounded rack. If you need to
ground the chassis, see Grounding the Chassis.
Step 1 Holding the replacement power supply with one hand underneath the module and the other hand holding the handle, turn
the power supply so that its release latch is on the side and align the back end of the power supply (the end with the
electrical connections) to the open power supply slot before carefully sliding the power supply all the way into the slot
until it clicks into place.

slot.
Note
Step 2 Test the installation by trying to pull the power supply out of the slot without using the release latch.
If the power supply does not move out of place, it is secured in the slot. If the power supply moves, carefully press it all
the way into the slot until it clicks in place.
Step 3 Attach the power cable to the electrical outlet on the front of the power supply.
Step 4 Make sure that the other end of the power cable is attached to the appropriate power source for the power supply.
Depending on the outlet receptacle on your power distribution unit, you might need the optional jumper cable
to connect the switch to your outlet receptacle.
Note
Step 5 Verify that the power supply is operational by making sure that the power supply LED is green.
