Meeting Power Requirements
This section discusses power requirements, including:

• Uninterruptable Power Supply Requirements
Power Supply Requirements
Adhere to the following requirements in order to operate your Extreme Networks
equipment safely:
• Ensure that your equipment is placed in an area that accommodates the power
consumption and component heat dissipation specifications.
• Ensure that your power supply meets the site power, AC power, or DC power
requirements of the network equipment.
• Ensure that DC connections are made by an on-site electrician.
Note: For power specifications for Extreme Networks products, see the Extreme
Networks website at http://www.extremenetworks.com.
• When connecting power to installed equipment, avoid connecting through an
extension cord or power strip.
• If your switch includes more than one power supply, connect each power supply to
different, independent power sources. If a power source fails, it will only affect the
switch power supply to which it is connected. If all switch power supplies are
connected to a single power source, the entire switch is vulnerable to a power source
failure.
