    Maintenance and troubleshooting Power supply failure The HPE 1950 24G 2SFP+ 2XGT and HPE 1950 48G 2SFP+ 2XGT switches use built-in power supplies and support only AC power input. The HPE 1950 12XGT 4SFP+, HPE 1950 24G 2SFP+ 2XGT PoE+(370W), and HPE 1950 48G 2SFP+ 2XGT PoE+(370W) switches use built-in power supplies and support AC power input, RPS power input, and concurrent AC and RPS DC inputs.
  • Page 34: Concurrent Rps And Ac Input Failure

    Solution To resolve the problem: Verify that the switch is securely connected to the RPS. Verify that the RPS is operating correctly. Verify that the operating temperature of the switch is in the acceptable range, and the power supply has good ventilation. Over-temperature can cause the power supply to stop working and enter the protection state.
