Specifications

16 Implementing IBM System Networking 10Gb Ethernet Switches
򐂰 Power:
– The AC-Powered G8124 has dual load-sharing internal power modules, with 50 - 60
Hz and 100 - 240 VAC auto-switching per module.
– The nominal power for the G8124 ranges from 115 W to 168 W depending on the
speed of the port (1G/10G), type of transceivers (SR or DAC), and number of
active ports.
򐂰 Mean time between failures (MTBF): 189,060 hrs with ambient operating temperature of
40 ºC. MTBF is calculated by using the Telcordia Technologies Reliability Prediction
Procedure for Electronic Equipment (SR-332 issue 2), Parts Count (method 1 case 1)
failure rate data.
Figure 1-7 shows front view of the RackSwitch G8124 with the different ports that are
described previously. Figure 1-8 shows the rear view of the switch for both the AC and
DC models.
