DANGER

The power supplies are hot swappable, which means they can be removed and replaced while
the chassis is powered on and running. However, Brocade recommends that you disconnect the
power supply from the wall outlet before removing and replacing the supply. The chassis can be
running while a power supply is being removed and replaced, but the power supply itself should
not be connected to a power source. Otherwise, you could be injured or the power supply or
other parts of the device could be damaged.

NOTE
Disabling or removing a POE power supply also disables the POE daughter card and associated POE
ports.
