Removing a DC power supply

You can order a new DC power supply from Brocade Communication Systems, Inc.

DANGER

The power supplies are hot swappable, which means they can be removed and replaced while
the chassis is powered on and running. However, Brocade recommends that you disconnect
the power supply from the wall outlet before removing and replacing the supply. The chassis
can be running while a power supply is being removed and replaced, but the power supply
itself should not be connected to a power source. Otherwise, you could be injured or the power
supply or other parts of the device could be damaged.
