RPS Connector
The Cisco RPS 2300 (model PWR-RPS2300) supports the Catalyst 2960-X switch.
RPS is not supported on the Catalyst 2960-X 24PSQ-L switches.Note
Attach only the following Cisco RPS model to the RPS receptacle: RPS2300. Statement 370Warning
Connect the switch and the redundant power system to different AC power sources.
Use this cable for the RPS: CAB-RPS2300-E.
Cisco RPS 2300
The Cisco RPS 2300 is a redundant power system that can support six external network devices and provide
power to one or two failed devices at a time. It senses when the internal power supply of a connected device
fails and provides power to the failed device, preventing loss of network traffic. For more information, see
the Cisco Redundant Power System 2300 Hardware Installation Guide on Cisco.com at this URL: http://
www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps7148/prod_installation_guides_list.html
The Cisco RPS 2300 has two output levels: –52 V and 12 V with a total maximum output power of 2300 W.
All supported and connected switches can simultaneously communicate with the RPS 2300. You can configure
these RPS 2300 features through the switch software:
•
Enable RPS active or standby mode for each connected switch
•
Configure switch priority for RPS support
•
List the connected switches and the power-supply module sizes
•
Obtain reports when a switch is powered by the RPS
•
Obtain status reports for the RPS power-supply module
•
Read and monitor backup, failure, and exception history
