Rps And Eps Input Port; Power Connector; Switch Features - ProCurve 2610 Series Installation And Getting Started Manual

RPS and EPS Input Port

The Switch 2610 Series support connectivity to a redundant power supply
(RPS/EPS). The ProCurve 600 Redundant and External Power Supply
(J8168A) and the ProCurve 610 External Power Supply (J8169A) are accessory
products for these switches. The RPS functionality of the 600 procides redun-
dant system power in case the switch's internal power supply fails. The EPS
functionality of the 600 and the 610 provides additional PoE power.

Power Connector

The Switch 2610 Series and Switch 2610-PWR Series do not have a power
switch; they are powered on when connected to an active AC power source.
The switches automatically adjust to any voltage between 100-127 and 200-
240 volts and either 50 or 60 Hz. There are no voltage range settings required.

Switch Features

The features of the Switch 2610 Series and Switch 2610-PWR Series include:
■ 24, or 48 auto-sensing 10/100Base-TX RJ-45 ports with Auto-MDIX.
■ 4 Uplink ports—two are 1000Base-T RJ-45 and two are mini-GBIC (SFP)
slots.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) operation—the 2610-PWR Series switches are
■
IEEE 802.3af compliant and provide up to 15.4W per port to power IP
phones, wireless access points, web cameras, and more. For more
information, see the PoE Planning and Implementation Guide, which is
on the ProCurve Web site at
The 2610-PWR switches support some pre-standard PoE devices.
■
However, the use of a cross-over cable may be required. For a current list
see the FAQ page for the 2610-PWR Switch, which can be found on the
ProCurve Web site, www.procurve.com, Technical Support, FAQs (all).
■ Plug-and-play networking—all ports are enabled—just connect the
network cables to active network devices and your switched network is
operational.
■ Auto-MDIX on all twisted-pair ports, 10/100 and 10/100/1000, meaning that
all twisted-pair connections can be made using straight-through cables.
Cross-over cables are not required, although they will also work.
Automatic learning of the hardware addresses in each switch's 8000-
■
address forwarding table, (with configurable address aging value).
