Configuring Combined Mode on a Catalyst 4500 Series Switch
If your switch configuration requires more power than a single power supply can provide, set the power
management mode to combined mode. Combined mode utilizes the available power for both power
supplies; however, your switch will have no power redundancy.
management mode to combined mode. Combined mode utilizes the available power for both power
supplies; however, your switch will have no power redundancy.
To effectively use combined mode, follow these guidelines:
•
Use power supplies of the same type and wattage (fixed or variable and AC or DC).
•
If you use power supplies with different types or wattages, the switch will utilize only one of the
power supplies.
power supplies.
•
For variable power supplies, choose a power supply that provides enough power so that the chassis
and PoE requirements are less than the maximum available power. Variable power supplies
automatically adjust the power resources at startup to accommodate the chassis and PoE
requirements.

If you have the power management mode set to combined mode and only one power supply installed,
your switch will accept the configuration, but power is available from only one power supply.

When your switch is configured to combined mode, the total available power is not the mathematical
sum of the individual power supplies. The power supplies have a predetermined current sharing ratio
