Introduction
The HPE FM 3180 fabric module is a 48 port 25 GbE and 8 port 100 GbE fabric module in a 1U form
factor that provides 2.0 Tbps Bandwidth, ideally suited for Datacenter top of rack deployments.
The FM 3180 supports port level configuration of 48 10 GbE or 25 GbE SFP ports and eight 100 GbE
QSFP28 ports. It provides superior low latency and power efficiency, while offering high reliability
features such as redundant and hot swappable power supplies and fans in forward and reverse airflow
configurations.

Contacting HPE Networking Support
You can open a support case by contacting the HPE Advanced Support Center at 1-800-633-3600. Note
that customers will be asked to provide their Support Agreement ID (SAID) so that the support agent can
provide the full level of support to which the customer is entitled and see the details of the equipment
covered. Alternatively, the customer could provide the serial number of the device under support.
You can also open a support case electronically through the HPE Support Center:
www.hpe.com/support/hpesc
Note: To log a case directly in HPE Support Center you will need both an HPE Passport account and a
valid Service Agreement ID (SAID). In May 2019, legacy Plexxi customers will receive HPE SAID
numbers for their existing Plexxi service agreements (see the “Support Service Contract Migration”
section in this document).

Safety Notes
Warning:
communications system are:
ï Damage to the eye by viewing an unterminated optical fiber or fiber optic connector.
ï Damage to the eye from invisible laser radiation from viewing a cut fiber or a broken fiber.
Never attempt to view optical connectors that may be emitting laser energy and always avoid possible exposure to

fan assemblies. Contact HPE for all repairs
i
~
To avoid possible eye injury, use an optical power meter to ensure there is no
optical power in a cable connected to any HPE fabric module. Even if a fabric
module is powered off, passive optics in an HPE fabric may transmit eyedamaging optical signals from neighboring fabric modules.
No user serviceable parts are inside the chassis other than the power supplies and
Only qualified personnel should service or replace HPE fabric modules.
The HPE fabric module contains multiple separate power sources. Always make
certain that
all
power sources are disconnected before servicing the unit.
Electrostatic Discharge Precautions
Use Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) precautions when handling an HPE fabric module outside a data
center rack. Once the fabric module is installed in a rack, the mounting hardware provides grounding
through the rack.
ESD Guidelines
Observe the following guidelines to avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage when installing or
servicing the HPE fabric module.
• Minimize handling of assemblies and components.
.
• Assemble or remove equipment only in a static-free work area.
• Use conductive work surfaces (such as an antistatic mat) to dissipate static charge and wear a
conductive wrist strap to dissipate the accumulation of static charge accumulation.
• Keep replacement parts in their original static-free packaging.
• Remove all plastic, foam, vinyl, paper, and other static-generating materials from the work area.
• Whenever possible, use tools that do not create electrostatic discharge.

Pre-Installation
Verify Site Requirements
Observe the following requirements when selecting a site to install the HPE fabric module.
Altitude
The HPE fabric module is designed to operate at an altitude ranging from -60 to 2000 meters (-196 to
6562 feet).
Temperature
The operating ambient temperature of a closed or multi-unit rack environment could be greater than room
ambient temperature. Ensure that you install the equipment in an environment compatible with the
maximum ambient temperature (Tma).
The fabric module must be used in a non-condensing environment, within a maximum temperature
range of 0° C - 45° C (56° F – 113° F)
Ventilation
To ensure proper ventilation, allow ample airflow through the fabric module. The cooling fans and
power supplies are oriented to support the airflow configuration ordered.
Circuit Overloading
The HPE kit contains two power supplies, which should be connected to separate circuits for redundancy
protection. Unless specified, the shipping container includes two power cables, each 1.5 meters in length,
which comply with appropriate country standards.
When you connect the equipment to the supply circuit, do not overload the circuits. You need to consider
the overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Review the equipment nameplate ratings before you start
making connections.
Make certain that all input connections are accessible at all times, and disconnect all power plugs before
servicing or moving the unit.
Reliable Earthing/Grounding
Maintain reliable earthing/grounding of the rack-mounted equipment. Pay attention to any supply
connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (for example, the use of power strips).
Verify that the AC power cords can easily reach from the AC power outlet to the connection on the
power supply panel of the fabric module.
Mechanical Loading
Ensure there is no uneven mechanical loading for the equipment in the rack to avoid a potentially
hazardous condition.
Equipment Protection
Choose an area where liquids or other foreign objects cannot fall onto the equipment or be drawn into
ventilation holes.
Equipment Specifications
Refer to the fabric module specifications in chapter 11, FM 3180 Specifications.

to the HPE Composable Fabric Support Matrix.
Rack mount kit
Rack mount for the fabric module.
UPS
For any UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) providing power to an HPE FM 3180 fabric module, HPE
recommends the following:
• The UPS must have enough capacity to power the fabric module plus any other equipment that is
connected to the UPS.
• The UPS must be a double-conversion on-line sine-wave UPS.
Cabling
Ensure there is ample clearance at the power panel and I/O panel to allow unrestricted cabling. Also
ensure the AC power cords can easily reach from the AC power outlet to the connection on the power
supply panel of the fabric module.
Unpack the Fabric Modules
Unpack all fabric module components and inspect for shipping damage.
Verify Equipment Delivered
Compare the contents of the shipment against the packing slip that was included in the shipment, check
for any shipping damage, and verify that the components received match those ordered.

FM 3180 is available with two AC power supplies. The power supplies can be ordered to exhaust out the
back or front panel.
FM 3180 is available with hot-swappable fans that either exhaust out the back (power) panel (red) or out
the front (I/O) panel (blue).
Cables and Transceivers
For supported cables and transceivers, including part numbers, refer to the following document:
• HPE Composable Fabric Support Matrix
Record the MAC Address
Record the fabric module MAC address. The MAC address is on a label on top of the fabric module. You
will need the MAC address for fabric module setup.
Installation Considerations
Keep the following considerations in mind when installing and cabling fabric modules.
Power
• Verify that power cords easily reach from the power outlets to the fabric module power supply modules.
• Ensure that appropriate grounding and current surge protection are in place before connecting the fabric
module to a power source.
• All input connections must be accessible (not blocked) at all times.
• Note that single power supplies and fan modules can be hot-swapped with power connected. Also,
I/O cables can be plugged and unplugged with the fabric module power connected and the fabric
module powered up.
• Invasive fabric module servicing requiring that the case be opened, must be accomplished by
qualified HPE support personnel. In this case, all power must be disconnected before servicing the
fabric module.
Working with Optical Cables
• Avoid excessive bending which can damage optical cables.
• Verify that ample clearance exists to allow unrestricted cabling.
