G600 Media Gateway Cooling

Cooling for the G600 Media Gateway is provided by three 12-volt DC variable-speed fans that are integrated into the back of the cabinet. The fans pull air through the front and left sides and up through the cabinet. Air exits from the back of the cabinet. The 650A Global Power supply controls the speed. The 650A Global Power supply varies the fan input voltage between 8VDC and 14VDC depending on a temperature sensor that is mounted in the power supply.

The fan assembly includes the three fans, a base plate to which the fans are attached, wiring, and an AMP connector that plugs into a cable that connects to the backplane. The assembly is easily installed and removed. You must replace the entire assembly if a fan fails. If a fan fails the following events will take place:

· An alarm through the power supply is detected as a power
 alarm.

· The remaining fans will go to high speed.

· The red LED on the 650A Global Power supply faceplate will   

  light.
