Cisco Catalyst 4500 2800W AC power supply (with inline power)

The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series offers internal power supplies and external power devices for multiple deployment scenarios. These scenarios include small and large deployments in alternating-current (AC) or direct-current (DC) environments for data-only configurations, and scalability up to 15.4 watts (W) per port (per the current IEEE 802.3af draft) for inline-power configurations.

The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series offers a variety of power supplies and accessories to meet the diverse needs of Enterprise and Service Provider customers. All of the available Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series power supplies can be used for data-only deployments, which typically require just a few hundred watts. For deployments that dictate support for inline power, Cisco offers several options.

The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series offers AC power with several internal supplies: 1000W (data only), 1300W (data and in-line power), and 2800W (data and in-line power). When more than 2800W of redundant data and in-line power are required for a Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series chassis in an AC powered environment, Cisco offers an External AC power shelf capable of producing 7500W with N+1 redundant power.

The Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series has one DC power option. Cisco offers a 1400W internal DC power supply option. This supply meets the power needs of all Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series configurations. The 1400W DC power supply can accept 7500W DC from either a direct connection to a DC power plant or from the new external AC power shelf.
