Power Supplies
PC7024 and PC7024F
PowerConnect 7024 and PowerConnect 7024F switches have an internal
180-watt power supply. The additional external power supply (PowerConnect
RPS720) provides 180 watts of power and gives full redundancy for the
switch.
PC7024P
PowerConnect 7024P switches have an internal 1000-watt power supply. The
additional external power supply (PowerConnect MPS1000) provides 1000
Watts and gives full redundancy for the switch.
PC7048
PowerConnect 7048 switches have an internal 180-watt power supply. The
additional external power supply (PowerConnect RPS720) provides 180 watts
and gives full redundancy for the switch.
PC7048P
PowerConnect 7048P switches have an internal 1000-watt power supply
which can support up to 24 ports of PoE. The additional external power
supply (PowerConnect MPS1000) allows all 48 ports of PoE, or 24 ports of
PoE and full redundancy for the switch.
PC7048R and PC7048R-RA
PowerConnect 7048R and PowerConnect 7048R-RA switches are designed as
top-of-rack switches and include two internal, replaceable, AC power supplies
for redundant or load-sharing operation. Each power supply can provide 300
watts and includes hot-swap support. This means you do not need to power-
down the switch to remove or replace one power supply while the other power
supply is operating normally. However, it is necessary to remove power from
the power supply that is being removed or replaced.
CAUTION: Remove the power cable from the modules prior to removing the
module itself. Power must not be connected prior to insertion in the chassis.
