The Ethernet Routing Switch 8300 chassis ships with no installed power supplies. Install the first power supply in the leftmost bay. Power supply bays are logically numbered 1, 2, and 3 left to right as viewed from the front of the chassis for the 8306 and 8310.
Do not install the 8301AC power supply and the 8302AC power supply within the same chassis. This configuration is not supported.
For the 8306 and 8310 chassis, the number of power supplies that you need to
•the number of modules installed in the chassis
•PoE requirements
•whether you want an optional redundant power supply or not
Table 3 "Recommended 8301AC/8302AC power supplies" (page 15) lists the number of 8301AC or 8302AC power supplies to install based on the number of installed modules and your power supply redundancy choice.
To provide the required PoE for powered devices (PDs), use Table 4 "8306/8310 chassis available system power" (page 16) to determine the source input power
