Specifications
The 600/900 W AC PSU functions from 90 V to 264 V and 47 Hz to 63 Hz AC Input. Each PSU provides
600 W to the system if the AC input is in the 110 V low-line output power range and 900 W to the
system if the AC input is in the 220 V high-line output power range.
More installed PSUs are needed to support the load if the low-line power range is used to power the
switch. The software determines the maximum available power required for the switch and enables the
modules accordingly.
Combining Different AC PSU Models
When 600/900 W AC PSUs and 700/1200 W AC PSUs are combined in the same BlackDiamond 8806
chassis and are powered on, all PSUs will be budgeted down to the lower powered 600/900 W AC
output values to avoid PSU shutdown due to over-current. ExtremeXOS optimizes total system power,
avoiding the possibility of over-current, by deciding whether to budget down PSUs with 220 V AC
inputs when PSUs with 110 V AC inputs are present, or to keep 110 V AC PSUs disabled.
CAUTION
Even though this process avoids the possibility of over-current, an I/O module may be powered off if a 600/900 W
AC PSU is added to a BlackDiamond 8806 system running in the following configuration:
●
The system is powered by three 700/1200 W AC PSUs at 220 V AC.
●
The system includes four or more PoE I/O modules with a PoE power requirement that falls between 2391 W
and 2438 W of inline power.
To avoid causing an I/O module to be powered off, do not add a 600/900 W AC PSU to an existing
BlackDiamond 8806 system running in the configuration listed above. Extreme Networks also
recommends that you avoid mixing 220 V AC and 110 V AC inputs when both 600/900 W and
700/1200 W PSUs are present in the same system. When a combination of 220 V AC and 110 V AC
inputs is applied, ExtremeXOS is designed to optimize total chassis power for each individual PSU type
but not for a mixture of PSU types.
