Installing the Switch

Installation Procedures

The 620 RPS/EPS also has two EPS Ports. The 620 RPS/EPS can provide a maximum of 398 watts of PoE power to each of the two EPS ports. It is important to understand the PoE power requirements of the 3500 and 3500yl- PWR switches because if the PoE power is not planned and implemented correctly the end devices connected to the switch ports may not receive power if an internal switch PoE power supply should fail. For further information regarding the 620 RPS/EPS PoE capabilities, see the HP ProCurve Power over Ethernet (PoE) Planning and Implementation Guide and the HP ProCurve 620 Redundant and External Power Supply Installation and Getting Started Guide for details ( www.procurve.com/manuals).

For redundant AC power, connect the 620 RPS/EPS to the switch using one of the supplied RPS cables. For redundant or additional PoE power, connect the 620 RPS/EPS to the switch using one of the supplied EPS cables. The RPS and EPS cables are 2.00 meters (6.56 feet) in length. These cables are identical. If accidentally cross connected, nothing will happen. No power will flow until properly connected.

620 RPS/EPS LEDs

The 620 RPS/EPS LEDs are duplicated on the front and back of the device. The following graphic shows an example of the back of the 620 EPS/RPS. There are two dual colored (green/orange) LEDs for each RPS and EPS port:
