PoE power system.
The external PoE power system has monitor function. It provides one system
monitoring module, one RS232 and two RS485 monitoring interfaces. The system
monitoring module reports the running information of the PSUs in the system to a
fabric through RS232 or RS485 interface and indicates alarm status by the alarm
LED (ALM). You can connect cables to the interfaces from the front as well as the
rear of the frame.

MBUS
Introduction
The MBUS is a service-independent maintenance and test bus. No service traffic
goes through the MBUS. The shutdown and reset of the MBUS does not affect the
services on the switch, and faults that have occurred on modules do not affect the
MBUS.
goes through the MBUS. The shutdown and reset of the MBUS does not affect the
services on the switch, and faults that have occurred on modules do not affect the
MBUS.
Through the MBUS, the system instructs the MBUS modules on individual cards to
power on/off the cards one by one in turn, thus prevent power surging. The MBUS
module software must support online upgrade.
