– Supervisor Engine 8L-E

– Supervisor Engine 8-E

– Supervisor Engine 7L-E

– Supervisor Engine 7-E

Note Refer to your software release notes for the minimum software release versions required to support the supervisor engines.

Fan tray
  • The chassis supports one hot-swappable fan tray. One fan tray model is available:

– WS-X4593-E

  • The fan tray contains six individual fans. The individual fans are not field replaceable; you must replace the fan tray in the event of a fan failure.
  • Air is drawn in on the right side of the chassis and exhausted on the left side of the chassis.
  • Fan tray STATUS LED (located on the fan tray front panel)

– Red—One or more individual fans have failed.

– Green—Fan tray is operating normally.

Power supply
  • Supports one or two power supplies. The following power supplies are supported:

– 1000 W AC-input power supply (PWR-C45-1000AC)

– 1400 W AC-input power supply (PWR-C45-1400AC)

– 1300 W AC-input power supply (PWR-C45-1300ACV)

  • All Catalyst 4500 series AC-input power supplies require single-phase source AC.
  • Source AC can be out of phase between multiple power supplies or multiple AC-power plugs on the same power supply because all AC power supply inputs are isolated.
  • Single power supplies are installed in the left power supply bay. The second power supply is installed in the right power supply bay.

Note For proper operation of the power supply OUTPUT FAIL LED, systems with single power supplies must be configured with a minimum of one fan tray and one supervisor engine. Systems with dual power supplies must have a minimum configuration of one fan tray, one supervisor engine, and one additional module. Failure to meet these minimum configuration requirements can cause a false power supply output fail signal.

  • Some Catalyst 4500 series modules may:

– Not be supported

– Require that you install a specific supervisor engine

– Have chassis slot restrictions

– Require a specific software release level to operate

  • Check your software release notes for specific support information.

Backplane

– Supervisor Engine 8-E

– Supervisor Engine 7-E

Note Refer to your software release notes for the minimum software release versions required to support the supervisor engines.

  • Supervisor engines must be installed in slot 5 or in slot 6.
  • Supervisor engine redundancy is supported in this chassis.

Note The Catalyst 4510R+E switch supports 1+1 supervisor engine redundancy for integrated resiliency. With the support of stateful switchover (SSO), the secondary supervisor engine serves as a backup to immediately take over after a primary supervisor failure. During the switchover, Layer 2 links are maintained transparently without the need to renegotiate sessions.

Modules
  • Supports up to eight Catalyst 4500 series modules.
  • Some Catalyst 4500 series modules may:

– Not be supported

– Require that you install a specific supervisor engine

– Have chassis slot restrictions

– Require a specific software release level to operate

  • Check your software release notes for specific information.

Backplane

48 Gbps full duplex per slot

Fan tray
  • The chassis supports a single hot-swappable fan tray. One fan tray model is available:

– WS-X4582+E

  • The fan tray contains ten individual fans. The individual fans are not field replaceable; you must replace the fan tray in the event of a fan failure.
  • Air is drawn in on the right side of the chassis and exhausted on the left side of the chassis.
  • Fan tray STATUS LED (located on the fan tray front panel)

– Red—One or more individual fans have failed.

– Green—Fan tray is operating normally.

Power supply
  • Supports one or two power supplies. The following power supplies are supported:

– 1000 W AC-input power supply (PWR-C45-1000AC)

– 1400 W AC-input power supply (PWR-C45-1400AC)

– 1300 W AC-input power supply (PWR-C45-1300ACV)

– 2800 W AC-input power supply (PWR-C45-2800ACV)

– 4200 W AC-input power supply (PWR-C45-4200ACV)

– 6000 W AC-input power supply (PWR-C45-6000ACV)

– 9000 W AC-input power supply (PWR-C45-9000ACV)

– 1400 W DC-input power supply, triple-input (PWR-C45-1400DC)

– 1400 W DC-input power supply with integrated PEM (PWR-C45-1400DC-P)

– External AC power shelf (WS-P4502-1PSU)

  • All Catalyst 4500 series AC-input power supplies require single-phase source AC.
  • Source AC can be out of phase between multiple power supplies or multiple AC-power plugs on the same power supply because all AC power supply inputs are isolated.
  • Single power supplies are installed in the left power supply bay. The second power supply is installed in the right power supply bay.

Note For proper operation of the power supply OUTPUT FAIL LED, systems with single power supplies must be configured with a minimum of one fan tray and one supervisor engine. Systems with dual power supplies must have a minimum configuration of one fan tray, one supervisor engine, and one additional module. Failure to meet these minimum configuration requirements can cause a false power supply output fail signal.
