The PSUs are factory-installed, field-replaceable units. Each PSU has a green LED
visible through the fan pack that indicates its powered-on status. If one of the PSUs
fails, the DC POWER status LED on the RMM turns red to indicate a failure, and the
green LED on the failed power supply turns red.

The DIM allows providing redundant power inputs. For best reliability, attach a power
cord to both receptacles, and plug the cords into separate power sources. When using
only one power source, plug it into the receptacle labeled A for best reliability. The
DIM is not hot-swappable. Fuses on the DIM can be accessed by powering down the
chassis and removing the fan module.

Connecting Cables

This section provides an overview of inter-chassis connections.

The R4300 or R4200 link the blades within each chassis to their respective user ports
and to control signals. In addition to the user port connections, signal paths include:

CAUTION: DOUBLE POLE/NEUTRAL FUSING

The DIM employs fuses in both the neutral and hot lines. Please contact
ClearCube or a ClearCube-certified technician for assistance with
servicing or replacing these modules or replacing the fuses in them.

NOTE

If you choose to use pre-assembled cables, be sure that the
cables for the desktop employ and terminate all four twisted
pairs. Standard Ethernet works with only two of the four pairs
connected, but the ClearCube C/Port operates only when all
four pairs of wire are used.
