Redundant Power System LED
The Redundant Power System (RPS) LED shows the RPS status (
Table 3-2
). Certain switches in the
switch cluster use a specific RPS model:
•
Cisco RPS 300 (model PWR300-AC-RPS-N1)—Catalyst 2900 LRE XL, Catalyst 2950,
Catalyst 3524-PWR XL, and Catalyst 3550 switches
•
Cisco RPS 600 (model PWR600-AC-RPS)—Catalyst 2900 XL and Catalyst 3500 XL switches,
except the Catalyst 2900 LRE XL and Catalyst 3524-PWR XL switches
Refer to the appropriate switch hardware documentation for RPS descriptions specific for the switch.

RPS LED
Color
RPS Status
Black (off)
RPS is off or is not installed.
Green
RPS is connected and operational.
Blinking green
RPS is providing power to another switch in the stack.
Amber
RPS is connected but not functioning.
The RPS could be in standby mode. To put the RPS in Active mode, press the Standby/Active button on the
RPS, and the LED should turn green. If it does not, one of these conditions could exist:
•
One of the RPS power supplies could be down. Contact Cisco Systems.
•
The RPS fan could have failed. Contact Cisco Systems.
Blinking amber Internal power supply of the switch is down, and redundancy is lost. The switch is operating on the RPS.
