6500 Series Switches
6500 Series Switches
Product Overview
Q.
What is the 8700 Watt (W) enhanced AC power supply?
A.
The 8700W enhanced AC power supply is a high-capacity power supply designed for Cisco
®
Catalyst
®
6500 Series Switches for scaling the Power over Ethernet (PoE) density in a single
chassis with full redundancy. With this power supply, the Cisco Catalyst 6509-E Switch
chassis can support up to 420 IEEE class 3 (15.4W) PoE devices with full redundancy,
thereby reducing the total cost of ownership in high-density PoE deployments.

Q.
What are the input power requirements for the 8700W enhanced AC power supply?
A.
The 8700W enhanced AC power supply is a triple input power supply. Each input requires
16A max at nominal line voltage –100–120VAC (low), 200–240VAC (high). The power supply
is designed with independent inputs and hence supports different input power phases for each
input.
Q.
In which Cisco Catalyst 6500 Series Switch chassis is the 8700W enhanced AC power
supply supported?
A.
Table 1 lists the supported chassis and the maximum amount of available power on these
chassis.
