Power supply requirements for NI-MLX-1Gx48-T-A modules
lists the power supply requirements for each type of router when installing
NI-MLX-1Gx48-T-A modules.
NOTE
When one or more NI-MLX-1GX48-T-A modules are installed in an MLX16-slot router, you must
replace the NI-X-16-FAN-EXH modules with NIBI-16-FAN-EXH-A high-speed fan modules. For more
information about high-speed fan modules, see
“NIBI-16-FAN-EXH-A high-speed fan assemblies”
page 61. If the 16-slot router is not upgraded to support NIBI-16-FAN-EXH-A modules before
NI-MLX-1GX48-T-A modules are installed, the following Syslog message is displayed.
SYSLOG: Mar 26 14:19:53:<12>R1, 48X1G modules in slots 10,11,13,16 shouldn't be
running without high speed fans
.
NOTE
The NIBI-16-FAN-EXH-A fan module does not ship with Brocade MLX-16 routers. Contact Brocade to
purchase this module.
