Introducing the HP 630 Redundant and/or External Power Supply

RPS Port Operation

RPS Port on the HP 630 RPS/EPS

The HP 630 RPS/EPS has one RPS port. You can connect only one HP switch

and provide it with backup power. This port can connect to any compatible

HP switch -- any switch with a blue-colored RPS port.

EPS Port on the HP 630 RPS/EPS

The HP 630 RPS/EPS has one EPS port. You can connect only one HP PoE+

capable switch to provide PoE+ power as a primary or backup source. PoE+

products are different from legacy PoE products -- This product does not

support legacy PoE switches to provide them with PoE power. The magenta-

colored EPS ports on the HP 630 RPS/EPS can be connected only to magenta-

colored EPS ports on HP switches. The EPS port provides the maximum

power (398 W).

Port Status LEDs

The RPS and EPS port status LEDs on the HP 630 RPS/EPS back panel are a

duplication of those on the front panel. For a description of these LEDs, see

Table 4-1 on page 4-2.

Power Connector

The HP 630 RPS/EPS does not have a power switch; it is powered on when

connected to an active AC power source. The HP 630 RPS/EPS automatically

adjusts to any voltage between 100-127 and 200-240 volts and either 50 or 60

Hz. There are no voltage range settings required.

RPS Port Operation

The HP 630 RPS/EPS can be connected to only one switch through the RPS

cable. The unit provides the +12 VDC to the switch in case the internal system

power supply in the switch or the AC power source for the switch fails.
