Warning
Note
78-6456-03
You can provide power to the switch either through the internal power supply or
through the Cisco RPS.
The internal power supply is an autoranging unit that supports input voltages
between 100 and 240 VAC. If you plan to use the internal power supply, use the
supplied AC power cord to connect the AC power connector to an AC power
outlet.
Specific Cisco RPS models support specific Catalyst 3500 XL switches:
Cisco RPS 600 (model PWR600-AC-RPS)—Supports the Catalyst 3512,
•
3524, 3548, and 3508 XL switches
Cisco RPS 300 (model PWR300-AC-RPS)—Supports the
•
Catalyst 3524-PWR XL switch
The Cisco RPS 600 (model PWR600-AC-RPS) provides a quasi-redundant power
source for four external devices that use up to 150W DC each. Use a one-to-one
cable (one connector at each cable end) to connect four external devices to the
four DC output power modules. The power source is quasi-redundant because
there are two AC input power modules for the Cisco RPS and one DC output
power module for each external device. The AC input to the Cisco RPS is fully
redundant, but the DC output to the external devices is not.
Attach only the Cisco RPS (model PWR600-AC-RPS) to the RPS
receptacle.
Do not connect the switch power cord to an AC outlet if the switch
is also connected to a powered-on RPS. The switches do not support
the fully-redundant configuration described in the RPS
documentation. The redundant-with-reboot configuration is not
recommended. For more information on the Cisco RPS 600, refer to
the Cisco Redundant Power System Hardware Installation Guide.
