Replacement power supply or a cover for the power supply slot
The QFX10000-PWR-DC power supply in a QFX10008 and QFX10016 chassis is a hot-removable and hot-insertable field-replaceable unit (FRU). You remove DC power supplies from the rear of the chassis.
Before you remove a power supply, ensure that you have power supplies sufficient to power the switch left in the chassis. See Power Requirements for QFX10000 Components.
Before performing DC power procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is off, locate the circuit breaker on the panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker in the OFF position.
Do not leave the power supply slot empty for a long time while the switch is operational. Either replace the power supply promptly or install a cover over the empty slot.
To remove a QFX10000-PWR-DC power supply from a QFX10000 switch (see Figure 28):
Ensure that the ejector is fully open to avoid scratching the chassis.
How to Install a QFX10000-PWR-DC Power Supply
Before you install a QFX10000-PWR-DC power supply in the chassis, ensure that you have followed all safety warnings and cautions:
Before performing DC power procedures, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. To ensure that all power is off, locate the circuit breaker on the panel board that services the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit breaker in the OFF position.
Before you connect power to the switch, a licensed electrician must attach a cable lug to the grounding and power cables that you supply. A cable with an incorrectly attached lug can damage the switch (for example, by causing a short circuit).
Do not mix AC and DC power supplies in the same chassis.
To meet safety and electromagnetic interference (EMI) requirements and to ensure proper operation, you must connect QFX10008 switches to earth ground before you connect them to power. For installations that require a separate grounding conductor to the chassis, use the protective earthing terminal on the switch chassis to connect to earth ground. For instructions on connecting a QFX10000 switch to ground using a separate grounding conductor, see Connect the QFX10008 or QFX10016 to Earth Ground.
The battery returns of the QFX10000-PWR-DC power supply must be connected as an isolated DC return (DC-I).
Ensure you understand how to prevent ESD damage. See Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available to install a QFX10000-PWR-DC power supply:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap
DC power source cables (not provided) with the cable lugs (provided) attached
The provided terminal lugs in a QFX10000 are sized for either 4 AWG (21.1 mm2) or 6 AWG (13.3 mm2) power source cables. When running all QFX10000-PWR-DC power supply modules in the chassis, the DC power source cables that you provide must be 6 AWG (13.3 2) mm²) stranded wire. We recommend that you install heat-shrink tubing insulation around the crimped section of the power cables and lugs.
Note:If you upgrade the QFX10000-PWR-DC to a JNP10K-PWR-DC2 and set the input mode to high (80-A), you must use 4 AWG (21.1 mm²) stranded wire.
Note:See the heat symbol . Wear heat-resistant gloves while accessing the fan tray and power supply.
