Introducing the HP 8200 zl
Switches
Load-sharing redundant power supplies can be installed in the back of the
8200 zl switches or they can be installed externally with the external power
connectors. To provide redundancy, each power supply should be connected
to different AC power sources. Then, if one AC power source fails, the switch
will continue to run.
Caution The switch redundant power supply is hot swappable, but, as indicated by the
caution statement on the power supply, it must be disconnected from AC
power before being installed or removed.
CAUTION:
.
.
Disconnect AC power from the power supply BEFORE installing or
removing the supply. Otherwise, damage to the equipment may result.
.
Refer to the installation guide for proper power cord selection
Because the switch can run on a single supply, removing a redundant supply
will not interrupt switch operation. However, on the 8212 zl, one power supply
will only supply enough power to run the module slots A-F. Slots G-L will not
receive any power unless there are at least two power supplies installed.
When power is restored from a second (or more) power supplies, a system
reload or interface module reset is required to restore operation to slots G-L.
To reset the interface modules, pull each module out about half way and then
reseat them. Do this for each module in slots G-L.
For more information regarding power see the:
■ ProCurve Switch zl Internal Power Supply Installation Guide.
■ HP Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+) Planning and Implementation
Guide.
Switch Accessories
Accessories of the 8200 zl switches include eithera6or12-slot chassis for
installing any of the available zl Modules. The supported zl modules include:
■ 24-Port 10/100/1000 PoE+ zl Module (J9307A) -- which can provide Power
over Ethernet (PoE+) power to 802.3at compliant (and some pre-stan-
dard) devices.
■ 20-Port 10/100/1000 PoE+/4-Port MiniGBIC zl Module (J9308A)
■ 4-Port 10GbE SFP+ zl Module (J9309A)
■ 24-Port 10/100 PoE+ zl Module (J9478A)
