1Overview
The UfiSpace S9180-32X is a high-performance, versatile open networking white box switch
that is designed to address the fast growing segment of the Ethernet switching market and
the needs to push capacity to the next level.
With 32 x 100G QSFP28 ports, the S9180-32X switch is where computer resources (servers
or blade chassis) are centralized and managed in a structured way utilizing high-efficiency
Ethernet connectivity.
With advanced capabilities, these switches deliver performance and intelligence to the
network edge in a flexible 1RU form factor that helps reduce infrastructure and
administrative costs.
The S9180-32X is the epitome of future networking with a powerful 4-core/8-core processor
and 32 high-speed 100G interfaces. It comes with redundant, hot swappable components
for convenience, increased availability, reliability and lower costs of maintenance.
This document describes the hardware installation process for S9180-32X.

Installation Environment Requirements
•Power Reserve: The S9180-32X power supply is available with:
1. DC Version: 1+1 active-active -40 to -72V DC power supply field replaceable unit or;
2. AC Version: 1+1 active-active 100 to 240V AC power supply field replaceable unit.
To ensure the active-active feed power design functions properly, a field with dual power
circuit is recommend with a reserve of at least 650 watts on each power circuit.
•Space Clearance: The S9180-32X width is 17.32 inches (44.0cm) and shipped with a rack
mount brackets suitable for 19 inch (43.8cm) wide racks. The depth of the S9180-32X chassis
is 16.9 inches (42.8cm) without the field replaceable units (FRUs) and comes with adjustable
mounting rails suitable for rack depths of 24 inches (60.9cm) to 31 inches (78.7cm). The
handle for the fan units will extend outwards by 1 inch (2.5cm) and the handle for the power
supplies will extend outwards by 1.5 inches (3.8cm). Therefore, to accommodate the fan and
power supply handles, a minimum space clearance of 6 inches (15.24cm) is needed at the
back of the S9180-32X. A total minimum reserve depth of 25.9 inches (65.79cm) is required.

• Cooling: The S9180-32X has two options for airflow direction. There is a back-to-front
option (Figure 3. Left) and a front-to-back option (Figure 3. Right). Make sure the
equipment on the same rack have the same airflow direction.
