Power Supplies
N3024, N3024F and N3048
N3024, N3024F and N3048 switches support two 200-watt Field Replaceable
Unit (FRU) power supplies which give full power redundancy for the switch.
The N3024, N3024F and N3048 switches offer the V-lock feature for users
desiring the need to eliminate accidental power disconnection. The V-lock
receptacle on the
Power Supply Unit (
PSU) allows for the use of a power cord
that has the V-lock feature to create an integral secure locking connection.
N3024P and N3048P
Dell Networking N3024P and N3048P switches support one or two 1100-watt
FRU power supplies. The N3024P switch comes with a single 715-watt power
supply (the default configuration), and supports either one or two 1100-watt
supplies. For the N3048P switch, an 1100-watt power supply is the default
configuration.
A single 1100-watt power supply can feed up to 24 PoE devices at full PoE+
power (950W). Dual-equipped switches will feed up to 48 PoE devices at full
PoE+ power (1800W), as well as provide power supply redundancy.
NOTE: PoE power is dynamically allocated. Not all ports will require the full PoE+
power.
CAUTION: Remove the power cable from the power supplies prior to removing
the power supply module itself. Power must not be connected prior to insertion in
the chassis.
Ventilation System
Two fans cool the N30xx switches. The N30xx switches additionally have a
fan in each internal power supply. The N30xx fan is a FRU.
