Introduction

This chapter provides an overview of the Matrix E7 chassis and its features. Also covered in this
chapter are the instructions on how to obtain additional help from Enterasys Networks if needed.

1.1 OVERVIEW

The Matrix E7 chassis design provides seven slots that can contain a variety of interface modules.
The chassis backplane provides support for a new generation of advanced switching modules,
while also providing backward compatibility and support for the complete family of existing
SmartSwitch 6000 modules.

The Matrix E7 chassis

• uses a distributed switching architecture,

• allows hot swapping of the interface modules,

• supports redundant power supplies, and

• can be installed as a freestanding unit or installed into a standard

48.26-centimeter (19-inch) rack.

All chassis components (power supplies, fan tray, and modules) are installed from the front of the
chassis for ease of maintenance. All LED indicators are observable from the front of the chassis to
aid in monitoring network operational status and performing maintenance. Figure 1-1 illustrates
the Matrix E7 chassis equipped with two 1200-Watt, 6C207-1 redundant power supplies.

There is another power supply available (6C207-3) that has a 1600-Watt power output. The
6C207-3 power supply should be installed for po wer redundan c y in a Matrix E7 chassis pop ulated
with a set of modules requiring more power than a 6C207-1 (1200 Watts).

Features

1.2 FEATURES

The following provides an overview of the chassis features.

Matrix E7 Chassis Modules

The Matrix E7 chassis has seven slots for interface modules. The Matrix E7 chassis supports all
generations of Matrix and SmartSwitch 6000 modules. This provides the flexibility to configure
the chassis with the maximum types of boards available to support 10/100 Ethernet and Gigabit
Ethernet to WAN and ATM applications.

Redundant Power Supplies

The Matrix E7 chassis supports two power supplies that reside in the lower section of the chassis,
in slots labeled PS1 and PS2. The second power supply provides redundancy and load sharing.

There are two models of ac power supplies available: 6C207-1 and 6C207-3.

6C207-1

The 6C207-1 is a 1200-Watt power supply, which has one front-panel ac input power connector.
This allows the connection of each power supply to a separately fused ac po wer source. One po wer
cord is shipped with the 6C207-1. The type of power cord shipped with the unit is
country-dependent.

CAUTION: Newe r models of modu les ma y require mor e pow er to ope rate . If the p ow er
requirement of the module population in a Matrix E7 chassis exceeds the power output
of a single 6C207-1 (1200-Watt) power supply, it is not recommended to install a
6C207-1 (1200-Watt) and a 6C207-3 (1600-Watt) power supply in the same chassis. If
the 6C207-3 fails, the 6C207-1 may not be able to handle the power requirements,
eliminating power redundancy and causing the system to fail and disrupt network traffic.

When two power supplies are installed, each po wer supply is capable of load sharing 50% (+/- 5%)
of the power

in a Matrix E7 chassis power load. This not only provides redundancy, it also extends

the life of the power supplies. If one power supply fails, the other power supply supports the entire
power load of the chassis without interruption to network traffic. Refer to Section 2.1 for power
outlet requirements.

1-3

Features

6C207-3

The 6C207-3 is a 1600-Watt power supply, which has two front-panel ac input power connectors.
The type of power cords shipped with the unit is country-dependent. Each power cord must be
plugged into a separately fused power circuit.

NOTE: Both power cords must be connected to the 6C207-3 for it to operate, and
connected to two separately fused ac power sources to handle the input power
requirements.

CAUTION: Newer models of modules may require more power to operate. If the power
requirement of the module population in a Matrix E7 chassis exceeds the power output
of a single 6C207-1 (1200-Watt) power supply, it is not recommended to install a
6C207-1 (1200-Watt) and a 6C207-3 (1600-Watt) power supply in the same chassis. If
the 6C207-3 fa ils, the 6C207-1 may not be able to handle the power requirements,
eliminating power redundancy and causing the system to fail and disrupt network traffic.

As with the 6C207-1 power supplies, the 6C207-3 is capable of load sharing 50% (+/- 5%) of the
power Matrix E7 chassis power load. If one power supply fails, the other power supply supports
the entire load of the chassis without interruption to network traffic. Refer to Section 2.1 for power
outlet requirements.

Power Supply LANVIEW LEDs

Each power supply comes equip ped with LEDs for at -a-glance diagnostics that indicate indi vidual
power supply status and overall chassis redundancy status. Refer to Chapter 2, Installation

Requirements and Guidelines , for a full explanation of the power supply LEDs and their

definitions.

Power Supply Status via Management

The Matrix E7 chassis power supplies report information to the interface modules installed in the
chassis regarding their present operating status as well as the Fan Tray status. This information
includes the following:

• Power Supply ID (PS1, PS2)

• Power Supply Status (normal/fault/not installed)

• Power Supply Redundancy Indication (redundant/not available)

• Fan Status (normal/fault)

Refer to the module-specific User’s Guide for instructions on how to access power supply status
information via Local Management.

1-4

Features

Auto-Ranging Power Supplies

The Matrix E7 chassis power supplies automatically adjust to the input voltage and frequency,
which allows an input voltage of 100 to 220 Vac, and a frequency between 50 and 60 Hz. See the
operating specifications in Appendix A. No additional adjustments are necessary. For installations
in North America and depending on which power supplies are installed, one 20 A or two 15 A
power cords are required. See Section 3.3 for more details.

Hot Swapping

To reduce network downtime, the power supplies are hot swappable. This allows the removal of
one power supply without powering down the chassis and interrupting network traffic.

The Matrix E7 Chassis Cooling System

The Matrix E7 chassis features a removable fan tray that is accessible from the front of the unit.
This unit is hot swappable, which allows it to be replaced without powering down the chassis. The
fan tray has one LANVIEW LED located on the front of the unit. This LED indicates the status of
the fan tray (normal/fault/not installed). Refer to Chapter 2 for a full description of the fan tray
LED states.

Rack Mountable Chassis

The Matrix E7 chassis can be mounted into a standard 48.26-centimeter (19-inch) equipment rack.
An equipment shelf is shipped with the chassis that you install prior to installing the chassis. The
Matrix E7 chassis can then be slid onto the shelf into place and then fastened to the chassis. Refer
to Section 2.1 for requirements on ventilation and cooling.

3.2.4 Installing a Power Supply

CAUTION: Newe r models of modu les ma y require mor e pow er to ope rate . If the p ow er

requirement of the module population in a Matrix E7 chassis exceeds the power output
of a single 6C207-1 (1200-Watt) power supply, it is not recommended to install a
6C207-1 (1200-Watt) and a 6C207-3 (1600-Watt) power supply in the same chassis. In
the event that the 6C207-3 fails, the 6C207-1 may not be able to handle the maximum
power requirements, eliminating power redundancy and causing the system to fail and
disrupt network traffic.

You must install at least one power supply in the Matrix E7 chassis. One power supply provides
sufficient power for most module configurations, but a second power supply can be installed to
provide a redundant, load sharing power source.

CAUTION: Make sure that the correct power supply is installed to handle the power
needed by the module population. Otherwise, an overload may result in damage to the
power supply.

3-9

Setting Up the Matrix E7 Chassis

When two power supplies are installed, t he load is e v enly distributed. If one power supply fails for
any reason, the second power supply assumes the load.

The Matrix E7 power supplies must be installed in the two slots labeled PS1 and PS2 at the bottom
of the chassis (Figure 3-6). If you intend to install a single power supply, it must be installed in the
slot labeled PS1 in the chassis. A large flat blade scre wdriver is needed to install the power
supplies.

To install the power supply into the Matrix E7 chassis, refer to Figure 3-6 and proceed as follows:

1. Unpack the power supply by removing it from the shipping box and sliding the two foam end

caps off the unit. (Save the shipping box and materials in the event the unit must be reshipped.)

2. Remove the power supply from its protective plastic bag. (Save the shipping box and materials

in the event the unit must be reshipped.)

3. Examine the power supply carefully, checking for damage. If any damage is noted, DO NOT

install the power supply. Contact Enterasys Networks immediately.

4. Slide the power supply into the slot labeled PS1 as follows:
a. Hold the power supply by placing one hand on the handle located on the front panel and using

the other hand to support the power supply.

b. Holding the power supply right side up, align the power supply with the plastic guides on the

bottom of the opening.

CAUTION: Forcing a misaligned power supply into pla ce can damage the po wer supply
and/or the chassis backplane.

c. With the power supply properly inserted into the opening, carefully slide the supply forward

until it is connected to the backplane. The front panel should be flush with the face of the
Matrix E7 chassis. If significant resistance is encountered before the front panel is flush,
remove and reinsert the power supply. Do not force the power supply into place.

d. Secure the power supply to the chassis by using a large flat blade screwdriver to turn the large

screw and lock the power supply in place.

5. If you are installing a second power supply, remove the blank plate from the second power
supply slot (keep the blank plate in the event you need to remove the power supply), and repeat
steps 1–4.

Setting Up the Matrix E7 Chassis

After completing the power supply installation, the Matrix E7 chassis is ready to be powered up.
Before you power up the Matrix E7 chassis, it is recommended that you complete the installation
of the interface modules in the Matrix E7 chassis. Refer to the following sections to complete the
installation.

3.2.5 Installing Matrix E7 Interface Modules

NOTE: A lowercase x indicates the general use of an alphanumeric character (e.g.,

6x1xx, the x’s indicate a combination of numbers or letters).

3.2.5.1 Considerations Before Installing Modules

Check the Release Notes for the correct module firmware version for proper operation in the
Matrix E7 chassis. Module functionality is different in the new Matrix E7 chassis as compared to a
SmartSwitch 6000 chassis. For example, the Distributed Ch assis Management is not supported in
the Matrix E7 chassis. Refer to the module release notes for specific information on supported
functionality.

The 6x3xx series interface modules can be installed in any of the 7 slots of the Matrix E7 chassis.
The 6x1xx and 6x2xx series modules were initially designed for the five-slot SmartSwitch 6000
chassis and should be installed in slots 1 to 5 in the chassis. If a 6x1xx or 6x2xx series module is
installed in slot 6 or 7, it will operate in standalone mode (no backplane connectivity).

If there are 6x1xx or 6x2xx series modules in the chassis, at least one 6x3xx module must be
installed in slots 1 to 5 for communication to 6x3xx boards in slots 6 and 7. The 6x3 xx module will
provide a proxy function, which allows the 6x1xx and 6x2xx modules to communicate with 6x3xx
modules in slot 6 or 7. If more than one 6x3xx module is installed in slots 1 to 5, the module in the
lowest numbered slot performs the proxy function for slots 6 and 7. Therefore, if a 6x3xx module
is already performing the proxy function, and another 6x3xx module is inserted into a lower
numbered slot, connectivity will be temporarily interrupted, as the new board takes over the proxy
function. When a 6x3xx module in a lower numbered slot is remov ed, and there is a 6x3xx mo dule
in a higher numbered slot, communication is not interrupted.

Uplink modules, such as the 6G306-06, should not be used to perform the proxy function.
Switching performance will be reduced on the uplink module if used for this purpose. The use of
other 6x3xx modules in the lower slots to perform the proxy function is recommended.

For Local Management, plugging the Local Management connection into the 6x3xx boards will
allow management connections no matter what the generation of the interface module. If the
connection is used to plug into a 6x1xx or 6x2xx board, onl y the modules in the first f i v e slots will
be recognized by the management client.

3-12

Setting Up the Matrix E7 Chassis

3.2.5.2 Installation Procedure

To install an interface module, proceed as follows:

1. Remove the blank panel covering the slot in which the interface module will be installed. All

other slots must remain covered to ensure proper airflow and cooling. (Save the blank plate in
the event you need to remove the module.)

2. Carefully remove the module from the shipping box. (Save the box and packing materi als in the

event the module must be reshipped.)

3. Locate the ESD wrist strap shipped with the Matrix E7 chassis. Attach the ESD wrist strap to

your wrist and plug the cable from the ESD wrist strap into the ESD grounding receptacle at the
upper right corner of the Matrix E7 chassis.

4. Remove the module from the plastic bag. (Save the bag in the event the module must be

reshipped.) Observe all precautions to prevent damage from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).

5. Examine the module for damage. If any damage exists, DO NOT install the module.

Immediately contact Enterasys Networks.

CAUTION: To prevent damaging the backplane connectors in the following step, take
care that the module slides in straight and properly engages the backplane connect ors.

6. Locate the slot guides that line up with the number of the slot in which the module will be

installed. Ensure that the top plastic locking tab lines up with the desired slot number located on
the front panel of the Matrix E7 chassis. Refer to Figure 3-7. Install the interface module in the
chassis by aligning the module circuit card between the upper and lower metal rail guides of the
desired slot, sliding it into the chassis, and locking down the top and bottom plastic locking tabs,
as shown in Figure 3-7. Take care that the interface module slides in straight and properly
engages the backplane connectors.
