RPS Connector

The Cisco RPS 2300 (model PWR-RPS2300) and the Cisco RPS 675 (model PWR675-AC-RPS-N1=)
support the Catalyst 2975 switch.

Warning

Attach only the following Cisco RPS model to the RPS receptacle:

PWR-RPS2300, PWR675-AC-RPS-N1=. Statement 370

Connect the Catalyst 2975 switch and the redundant power system to the same AC power source.

Cisco RPS 2300 and RPS 675

The Cisco RPS 2300 has two output levels: –52 V and 12 V with a total maximum output power of
2300 W. The Cisco RPS 675 has two output levels: –48 V and 12 V with a total maximum output power
of 675 W.

The RPS 2300 and RPS 675 are redundant power systems that can support six external network devices
and provide power to one failed device at a time. The RPS automatically senses when the internal power
supply of a connected device fails and provides power to the failed device, preventing loss of network
traffic. For more information, see the

section.

AC Power Connector

The switch is powered through the internal power supply. The internal power supply is an autoranging
unit that supports input voltages between 100 and 240 VAC. Use the supplied AC power cord to connect
to an AC power outlet.
