The nine ports on the XPS-2200 provide the power and management signals to the Catalyst 3750-X and 
3560-X switches. Other switch models do not support this management communication. The XPS-2200 
communicates with each switch through the 12-pin cable. All connected switches can simultaneously 
communicate with the XPS-2200. You can configure these XPS-2200 features through the switch 
software:

Enable XPS active or standby mode for each connected switch

Configure switch priority for XPS support

List the connected switches and power supply module sizes

Report when a switch is powered by the XPS

Report the XPS power supply module status

Read and monitor backup, failure, and exception history

See the switch software configuration guide on Cisco.com:

The Catalyst 3750-X switches have a StackPower connector for use with Cisco StackPower cables to 
configure a switch power stack that includes up to four switches. By adding an XPS-2200 expandable 
power system, you can configure a power stack that comprises up to nine switches. A switch power stack 
can be configured in redundant or power-sharing mode. 

You can order these StackPower cables from your Cisco sales representative:

CAB-SPWR-30CM (0.3-meter cable)

CAB-SPWR-150CM (1.5-meter cable)

For details about connecting StackPower cables and StackPower guidelines, see the 

You can connect the switch to a host such as a Windows workstation or a terminal server through the 
10/100 Ethernet management port or one of the console ports (see 

). The 

10/100 Ethernet management port connection uses a RJ-45 crossover or straight-through cable. The 
RJ-45 console port connection uses the supplied RJ-45-to-DB-9 female cable. The USB console port 
uses a USB type-A-to-USB 5-pin mini-Type B cable.
