Power Supply Module Overview
The switch operates with either one or two active power supply modules. A Catalyst 3850 switch that is part of a StackPower stack operates with power supplied by other stack switches.
You can use two AC modules, two DC modules, one AC and one DC module, or one module and a blank cover.
All power supply modules have internal fans. All switches ship with a blank cover in the second power supply slot.
Table 4-1 describes the supported internal power supply modules.

For information on available PoE, see these sections:
•
Table 1-15 (available PoE with AC power supply)
•
Table 1-16 (available PoE with DC power supply)
•
Table 1-17 (switch power supply requirements for PoE and PoE+)
Note
A 48-port switch with one 715-W power supply provides up to 7.7 W of PoE to all ports.
The 350-W and 715-W AC power supply modules are autoranging units that support input voltages between 100 and 240 VAC. The 1100-W power supply module is an autoranging unit that supports input voltages between 115 and 240 VAC. The 440-W DC power supply module has dual input feeds (A and B) and supports input voltages between 36 and 72 VDC. The output voltage range is 51 to 57 V.
Each AC power supply module has a power cord for connection to an AC power outlet. The 1100-W and 715-W modules use a 16-AWG cord (only North America). All other modules use an 18-AWG cord. The DC power supply module must be wired to a DC power source.
Figure 4-1 to Figure 4-4 show the power supply modules.

Installation Guidelines
Table 4-1 lists the switches and the compatible power-supply modules. Observe these guidelines when removing or installing a power supply or fan module:
•
Do not force the power supply or fan module into the slot. This can damage the pins on the switch if they are not aligned with the module.
•
A power supply that is only partially connected to the switch can disrupt the system operation.
•
Remove power from the power-supply module before removing or installing the module.
•
The power supply is hot-swappable. In some configurations, such as full PoE+ or power sharing mode, removing a power supply causes powered devices to shut down until the power budget matches the input power of a single power supply. To minimize network interruption, hot swap the power supply under these circumstances:
–
The switch is in StackPower mode and sufficient power is available.
–
The switch is powered by other switches in a power stack, and no active backup is in progress.
For the switch commands that display available power budget, see the software configuration guide.
Caution 
Do not operate the switch with one power-supply module slot empty. For proper chassis cooling, both module slots must be populated, with either a power supply or a blank module.
 |
Warning Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they contain electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other equipment; and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate the system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place. Statement 1029
|
 |
Warning Do not reach into a vacant slot or chassis while you install or remove a module. Exposed circuitry could constitute an energy hazard. Statement 206
|
 |
Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment. Statement 1030
|
 |
Warning If a Cisco external power system is not connected to the switch, install the provided connector cover on the back of the switch. Statement 386
|
Installing or Replacing an AC Power Supply
Step 1
Turn off the power at its source.
Step 2
Remove the power cord from the power cord retainer.
Step 3
Remove the power cord from the power connector.
Step 4
Press the release latch at the right side of the power supply module inward and slide the power supply out. (Figure 4-6).
Caution 
Do not leave the power-supply slot open for more than 90 seconds while the switch is operating.
 |
Warning This unit might have more than one power supply connection. All connections must be removed to de-energize the unit. Statement 1028
|
Step 5
Insert the new power supply into the power-supply slot, and gently push it into the slot (Figure 4-6). When correctly inserted, the 350-W and 715-W power supplies (excluding the power cord retainer) are flush with the switch rear panel. The 1100-W power-supply module extends 1.5 inches from the switch rear panel.
Figure 4-6 Inserting the AC-Power Supply in the Switch
Step 6
(Optional) Make a loop in the power cord and thread it through the power cord retainer (Figure 4-7).
Figure 4-7 AC-Power Supply with Power Cord Retainer
Step 7
Connect the power cord to the power supply and to an AC power outlet. Turn on the power at the power source.
