Product overview

The H3C S12500 Routing Switch Series includes the models in Table 1.

Table 1 S12500 models

Model MPU slots Line card slots Switching fabric module slots

S12508-AC 2 8 9

S12508-DC 2 8 9

S12518-AC 2 18 9

S12518-DC 2 18 9

NOTE:

• The “AC” suffix in a chassis model represents AC powered and the “DC” suffix in a chassis model

represents DC powered.

• The line card slots are for both Ethernet interface cards and OAA cards. For card specifications, see

“Appendix A Technical specifications.”

• Unless otherwise stated, the configuration and installation procedures in this document apply to all

S12500 switches.

Physical architecture

NOTE:

• The DC-powered model and the AC-powered model of a chassis look the same.

• The diagrams in this guide are for illustration only.

The S12508 chassis has the following slots and components:

• Two MPU slots and eight line card slots at the front, and nine switching fabric module slots at the

rear.

• One power frame, at the top of the chassis, can accommodate up to six power modules.

• Two horizontally oriented fan trays at the rear of the chassis. For the ventilation inside the chassis,

see Figure 7.

The S12518 chassis has the following slots and components:

• Two MPU slots and 18 line card slots at the front, and nine switching fabric module slots at the rear.

• Two power frames at the top, and each power frame can accommodate up to six power modules.

• Two horizontally oriented fan trays at the rear. For the ventilation inside the chassis, see Figure 7.

Backplane

The backplane of an S12500 switch is located inside the chassis. It provides high-speed data switching

between switching fabric modules and line cards, and exchanges management and control signals

between MPUs and line cards/switching fabric modules. The backplane provides the following

capabilities:

• Provides communication channels for signal exchange between cards.

• Supports hot-swapping of cards.

• Identifies card type.

• Supplies power to MPUs, line cards, switching fabric modules, fan trays, and power modules when

connected to the power frame.

• Provides monitoring channels to monitor power module status.

Fan tray

A fan tray contains fan units. The dimension of each fan unit is 120 × 120 × 38 mm (4.72 × 4.72 ×1.50

in).

Both the S12508 and the S12518 use an upper fan tray at the top and a lower fan tray at the bottom.

Each fan tray comprises 12 fan units and one fan monitoring board.

S12500 fan trays provide the following functions:

• Effective heat dissipation and single-point of failure protection.

• Status monitoring, including fan rotation speed monitoring and fault alarming.

• Fan speed can be controlled by the MPU or automatically adjusted based on temperature. The

S12508 and S12518 have four groups of fans. Speed adjustment is done on a per-group basis to

decrease noise and improve energy efficiency.

• Each fan tray has two LEDs on the front panel to show its operating status.

• Hot swappable. The fans receive DC power from the backplane, and are hot swappable.

CAUTION:

The S12508 and S12518 use different fan trays, and do not support the intermixing of fan trays.

Figure 5 shows the S12508 fan tray. The physical view of the S12518 fan tray is similar.
