8. (Optional) Connect an External Power Supply

The ProCurve 620 Redundant and External Power Supply (J8696A), hereafter
referred to as the 620 RPS/EPS, is an accessory product for the 2910al
Switches and specific other ProCurve switches. The 620 RPS/EPS provides
two types of power to the switches, however the 2910 Switches do not use the
PoE power (EPS) portion of the 620 RPS/EPS.
These switches support the RPS or redundant portion of the 620 RPS/EPS.
Redundant power to one of up to two switches can be supplied to back up the
internal switch power supply in case of the internal power supply fails. Should
the internal switch power supply fail, power will be supplied from the 620 RPS/
EPS.
The 620 RPS/EPS is an unmanaged power supply that only provides
information by way of LEDs.
