Switch Hardware
3.2.7 SFCS-1000 Common Equipment Card (CEC)
The CEC provided with the SFCS-1000 performs several functions. Because
each SCP contains an Ethernet port, a major function of the CEC is to provide
a single, unified Ethernet port connection for all of the SCPs. The CEC is also
responsible for monitoring the environmental conditions of the switch and
reporting this information to the SCPs. The CEC reports conditions such as
malfunctioning fans, overheated power supplies, and an overheated enclo-
sure.
3.2.7.1 CEC Front Panel
The front panel of the SFCS-1000 CEC includes the following features: alarm
relay contacts, CEC status LEDs, and an Ethernet port with four LEDS. These
features are illustrated in Figure 3.9. Refer to the following subsections for
detailed descriptions of these features.
