Juniper Networks EX8208 - Manual (Page 32)

Power Supplies
Power supplies for the EX8208 switch are fully redundant, load-sharing, and
hot-removable and hot-insertable field-replaceable units (FRUs). Each EX8208 switch
chassis can hold up to six 2000 W AC, six 3000 W AC, or six 2000 W DC power supplies.
The 2000 W AC power supplies support both low-voltage line (100–120 VAC) and
high-voltage line (200–240 VAC) AC power configurations on an EX8208 switch. Each
2000 W AC power supply delivers 2000 W of power at high-voltage line (200–240 VAC)
or 1200 W at low-voltage line (100–120 VAC) to the EX8208 chassis.
Each 3000 W AC power supply delivers 3000 W of power at high-voltage line (200–240
VAC) input to the EX8208 chassis. Low-voltage line input is not supported for the 3000
W AC power supplies on the EX8208 switch.
Each DC power supply delivers 2000 W of power to the chassis when the input voltage
is in the range –40 VDC through –72 VDC.
Only two AC power supplies are required for the base AC configuration and switch
powerup. The redundant AC configuration ships with six AC power supplies to provide
the capacity to power the system using N+1 or N+N power redundancy. See “AC Power
Supply in an EX8200 Switch” on page 40 and “EX8208 Switch Configurations” on page 6.
The redundant DC configuration ships with four DC power supplies. The dual inputs of
the DC supplies provide direct support for N+N power redundancy. The redundant
configuration also provides sufficient capacity for N+1 redundancy in most configurations;
if necessary, up to two additional DC supplies can be added to the system. See “DC Power
Supply in an EX8200 Switch” on page 48 and “EX8208 Switch Configurations” on page 6.
CAUTION: Mixing different types of power supplies in the same chassis is not supported.

EX8208 Switch Configurations
Table 1 on page 7 lists the seven sample hardware configurations for an EX8208
switch—base (AC), redundant (AC and DC versions), and fully loaded chassis (AC and
DC versions)—and the components included in each configuration.
The switch is shipped in only four of these seven configurations: base (AC with 2000 W
AC power supplies), base (AC with 3000 W AC power supplies), redundant (AC with
2000 W AC power supplies), and redundant (DC).
