USG6680 HARDWARE ILLUSTRATION
The USG6680 has both AC and DC models and uses an integrated chassis that contains the SPUA (main processing unit), SPUB (service engine), interface cards (two 2XG8GE expansion cards and an 8GEF expansion card), dual power modules, and fan module. You can also add some optional modules, such as hard disk and expansion cards, to improve system reliability and add more ports.

Name | Description |
|---|---|
Slot numbering | Indicates the layout of the slots, including the slot number and module type. |
SPUA (the main processing unit, in slot SPU11) | The core component for system control and management. SPUA provides an out-of-band management port, console port, and USB port for management access. SPUA can optionally provide one or two hard disks (SM-HDD-SAS300G-A, SM-HDD-SAS600G-A or SM-HDD-SAS1200G-A) as required. SPUA is installed in slot SPU11 and cannot be removed. |
SPUB (the service engine, in slot SPU12) | SPUB has an IAE to provide content security. SPUB is installed in slot SPU12 and cannot be removed. |
Fan module (in slot FAN13) | The fan module provides air flow for heat dissipation. The slot numbering layout and ESD jack are also located in the fan module. The fan module supports hot-swapping and can be replaced without interrupting device operation. However, to prevent overheating, do not operate the device without a functioning fan module for more than one minute. For details, see SUA2FANA. |
Power modules (in slots PWR9 and PWR10) | Provides power input and distribution for the device. Two DC or AC power modules are mandatory to provide 1+1 power redundancy. If one power module fails, the other can support the entire system so that you can replace the faulty power module without interrupting device operation. For details, see 700 W AC Power Module or 350 W DC Power Module. |
ESD jack | The equipment end of the wrist strap is inserted into the ESD jack. For the wrist strap to be effective, ensure that the device is already grounded. |
