• Two switch fabric modules
• A slot panel in each empty interface module slot and power supply slot. The slot panel ensures
proper airflow within the chassis.
• Two AC power supplies
• A fan tray assembly, which contains the cooling system for the chassis
You can install the following components in the slots:
• Up to two management modules
• Up to 16 interface modules
• Up to eight AC or DC power supplies (four system (SYS) power supplies and four PoE power
supplies)
Before installing any modules or power supplies, you must remove the slot panel.
If you do not install a module in a slot, you must keep the slot panel in place. If you run the
chassis with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.
Figure 4 identifies the slots where you can install modules and power supplies, and the
electrostatic discharge (ESD) connector, into which you can plug an ESD wrist strap to ground
yourself while handling and installing modules.
