External Ports
The RG-S6910-3Cprovides thefollowingports:
Universalserial bus (USB)port:This port canconnect withUSB memoryto save logs, switchversions,warnings
andother diagnosticmessages.Therefore,it is moreconvenientto upgradethe softwareversion ofthe switchon
lineandsave the loginformation.
To protect the data and avoid device damage,usequalifiedUSBflash disks of good brands.At the sametime,the
localUSB port is compatible withmostofthe USB controllers exceptsome USBflashdisks.
RG-S6910-3C series switches support debugging, configuration, maintenance, management and switch software
uploadingofConsoleports.
Consoleport:UseRS-232interfaceelectrical level andstandardRJ45connector.This interfaceis connected with
the serialportof terminalPC to perform system debugging,configuration,maintenance,management,and switch
software uploading.
MGMT port:This is an out-bandEthernet port, whichuses standardRJ45connector.This interfaceis connected
with Ethernetport of a PC to perform program downloading.
QSFP28 port: Thereare 96 100G QSFP28 ports whichsupportoptical modulesand DAC coppercables.These
ports can workin 100G/40G modeand 4x25G/4x10G mode.

Power Supply
The RG-S6910-3Cseries switchessupportRG-PA1200I-Fpowersupplymodule.Thesmartpowersupplymodule
supports powermanagement,andthe switch can readinput power,inputcurrent, and temperature in realtime.The
powersupplymodulesupports hotswapping.
The RG-S6910-3Cseries switches support2+2 powersupplyredundancy. To improvethe stabilityandreliabilityof
the entire system, it is recommended to configure 2+2 power supply redundancy. When the four power supply
modules worknormally,the switchis in the status ofcurrentsharing.
It requires at leasttwo powersupplymodules to work normally.Filler panels needto be installedinthe unoccupied
powersupplymoduleslots toensureventilationandheatdissipation andavoiddusts.
Heat Dissipation
The workingtemperature ofthe RG-S6910-3Cswitches is 0°Cto40°C (32°F to 104°F), and the heat dissipation design
needs toensurethestability,safety andmaintainabilityinsuch environment.TheRG-S6910-3Cseries switches adopt
fan ventilationand forcedconvection to ensurethe device can work normallyin specifiedenvironment.Dustthedevice
every three months toavoid blockingthe ventilationopenings.
The RG-S6910-3Cswitch supports M2EFAN I-F andprovides fan speedregulation,fanfailurewarning,andfan hot
swapping.
