High Availability HW Features
The S-Series includes many standard high availability features. These
hardware-based features allow the S-Series to be deployed in mission
critical environments that require 24/7 availability.
High Availability Summary:
• Passive chassis backplanes S1A, S3, S4, S6, S8 chassis
• Meshed backplane architecture in the S3 chassis
• Hot swappable fan trays with multiple cooling fans
• Separate system and PoE power supplies
• Hot swappable power supplies
• Multiple AC input connections for power circuit redundancy
• Load sharing/redundant I/O fabrics S4, S6, and S8 chassis
• N+1 fabric redundancy in the S8 and S6 chassis
• Hot swappable I/O fabrics and I/O modules
• Multiple host CPU for N+X redundancy
• Virtual Switch Bonding
