Chapter 1: Overview Features The AT-RPS3000 Chassis is a modular power supply system for the x610 Series of Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet switches. It protects the switches from power supply failures and provides additional PoE+ power. The chassis can support two or four x610 Series switches, depending on the switch model.

Power Supply Modules This table lists the power supply modules that are currently available for the AT-RPS3000 Chassis and PoE+ x610 Series switches. One module supplies only system power to the x610 Series switches and two modules provide system power and PoE+ power.
Chapter 1: Overview The power supply modules for the AT-RPS3000 Chassis and PoE+ x610 Series switches must be purchased separately. Non-PoE+ x610 Series switches come with non-removable power supply modules. Note The AT-PWR800 and AT-PWR1200 Modules are compatible with non-PoE+ x610 Series switches. They may be used in the AT-RPS3000 Chassis to provide active system power to non-PoE+ switches.
PoE+. The switch may obtain its system power either from its own internal power supply module or from a module in the AT-RPS3000 Chassis. There is no load-sharing of system power. Consequently, one of the sources is going to be actively providing system power to the switch while the other source is held in a redundant state.
AT-RPS3000 Chassis. System power for PoE+ and non-PoE+ x610 Series switches is provided by all four RPS ports on the AT-RPS3000 Chassis. RPS 1 and 3 System ports provide only system power, and RPS 2 and 4 PoE+/System ports provide PoE+ power in addition to system power.
Page 23
This assumes, of course, that both supplies have PoE+ power. So, in essence, the AT-RPS3000 Chassis performs two roles for PoE+ switches. It acts as a redundant source of system power for the switches and, assuming the chassis has PoE+ power supplies, actively provides them with additional power for PoE+ so that they can support more powered devices.
A power supply module that is connected to an invalid configuration may overload and fail. The responsibility for adhering to the rule belongs to the installer because the AT-RPS3000 Chassis cannot determine the low- or high-power status of the switches connected...
Switch places its non-removable, internal power supply module in a redundant state, and receives all of its system power from the AT-RPS3000 Chassis and the power module in slot A. If there is an interruption of system power from the chassis, the switch automatically activates its internal power supply to maintain network operations.

AT-RPS3000 Redundant Power Supply Installation Guide The chassis must have a second power supply to support three or four low-power switches, as illustrated in the following example. The power module in slot A supports switches 1 and 2, and the module in slot B powers switches 3 and 4.
2136 Figure 11. Example of Low-power and High-power Switches When a high-power, non-PoE+ switch is connected to the AT-RPS3000 Chassis, it responds just like a low-power switch. It places its internal power supply in the redundant state and draws its system power from the chassis.

Chapter 1: Overview PoE+ Switches Here is an example of the AT-RPS3000 Chassis supporting a single PoE+ switch, the AT-x610-24Ts/X-POE+ Switch. Notice that the switch is connected to RPS 2 PoE+/System port on the chassis so that it receives both system and PoE+ power from the power module in slot A. It would receive only system power if it was connected to RPS 1 System port.

Series switches and AT-RPS3000 Chassis. Non-PoE+ You may use any of the three available power supply modules listed in Table 1 on page 19, even the two PoE+ modules, in the AT-RPS3000 Switches Chassis to provide active system power to non-PoE+ switches. The switches may be connected to any of the four RPS connectors on the chassis.
AT-RPS3000 Redundant Power Supply Installation Guide PoE+ Switches The PoE+ switches do not come with power supplies. You must purchase them separately and install them as part of the switch’s installation procedure. The only way to determine which power module is appropriate for a PoE+ switch is to determine the amount of power the powered devices connected to the switch will require.

Turning off an RPS port stops the transmission of system power. The switch that is connected to the RPS port will stop functioning if it is completely dependent on the AT-RPS3000 Chassis for its system power, either because its internal power supply has failed or been removed.
The power supply in the switch does not have to be the same type as the power supply in the AT-RPS3000 Chassis. For example, a switch that contains the AT-PWR250 Module may be connected to an AT-PWR1200 Module in the AT-RPS3000 Chassis.
