Power supplies
The S3048–ON ships with one AC power supply. Dell EMC recommends purchasing a second power supply.
The S3048–ON supports AC power supplies with two air-ow directions—from the I/O side to the PSU side and from the PSU side to the
I/O side. Two PSUs are required for full redundancy, but the switch can operate with a single PSU.
The PSUs are eld replaceable. When running with full redundancy—two power supplies installed and running, you can remove and replace
one PSU without disrupting trac.
CAUTION: To prevent electrical shock, ensure that the S3048-ON is grounded properly. If you do not ground your equipment
correctly, excessive emissions may result. Use a qualied electrician to ensure that the power cables meet your local electrical
requirements.
NOTE: If you use a single PSU, install a blank plate in the other PSU slot. Dell EMC recommends using power supply 2 (PSU2) as
the blank plate slot. Use a #1 Philips screw driver to install the blank plate.
NOTE: ESD damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when
handling the S3048–ON and its components.

The PSUs have an integrated fan, which you cannot replace individually. If the fan integrated in a PSU fails, you must replace the entire
PSU. You can replace the fan trays individually. For fan tray replacement procedures, see Fans.
