Catalyst 4503-E Switch
Ta b l e 1 - 1 describes the features of the Catalyst 4503-E switch chassis.
Table 1-1 Catalyst 4503-E Switch Features
Feature Description
Chassis Three horizontal slots. Slots are numbered from 1 (top) to 3 (bottom).
Supervisor engines
•Supports the following supervisor engines:
–Supervisor Engine 9-E
–Supervisor Engine 8L-E
–Supervisor Engine 8-E
–Supervisor Engine 7L-E
–Supervisor Engine 7-E
NoteRefer to your software release notes for the minimum software 
release versions required to support the supervisor engines.
•Supervisor engines must be installed in slot 1.
•Supervisor engine redundancy is not supported in this chassis.
NoteCheck your software release notes for any restrictions on the type of 
module that can be installed.
Modules
•Supports up to two Catalyst 4500 series modules.
•Some Catalyst 4500 series modules may:
–Not be supported
–Require that you install a specific supervisor engine model
–Have chassis slot restrictions
–Require a specific software release level to operate
NoteCheck your software release notes for specific support information.
Backplane 48 Gbps full duplex per slot (96 Gbps)
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.

Chapter 1      Product Overview
Catalyst 4503-E Switch
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.
NoteFor 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.
