Chapter 1 Product Overview Management Options AC Power Connector For AC-powered switches, the internal power supply is an autoranging unit that supports input voltages between 100 and 240 VAC. For the Catalyst 2440-24-DC power information, see Appendix C, "DC Power Connections." Cisco RPS Connector For protection against a power supply failure, you can connect a Cisco RPS to the switch. The Cisco RPS can support six external network devices and provide power to one failed device at a time. It automatically senses when the internal power supply of a connected device fails and provides power to the failed device, preventing loss of network traffic. The Cisco RPS 300 has two output levels: -48 V and 12 V with a total maximum output power of 300 W. The Cisco RPS 675 has two output levels: -48 V and 12 V with a total maximum output power of 675 W. These Cisco RPS models support the Catalyst 3550 switches: • Cisco RPS 300 (model PWR300-AC-RPS-N1) supports the Catalyst 3550-12T, 3550-12G, 3550-24, 3550-FX, and 3550-48 switches. • Cisco RPS 675 (model PWR675-AC-RPS-N1) supports the Catalyst 3550-12T, 3550-12G, 3550-24, 3550-FX, 3550-24PWR, and 3550-48 switches. The Cisco RPS 300 does not support the Catalyst 3550-24-DC or 3550-24PWR switch. The Cisco RPS 675 does not support the Catalyst 3550-24-DC switch. The RPS 300 and RPS 675 models also support other Cisco devices. See the RPS documentation for more information. Console Port You can connect the switch to a PC by using the console port and the supplied RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter cable. If you want to connect the switch console port to a terminal, you need to provide an RJ-45-to-DB-25 female DTE adapter. You can order a kit (part number ACS-DSBUASYN=) containing that adapter from Cisco. Management Options The Catalyst 3550 switches offer several management options: • Network Assistant • The Network Assistant is a GUI-based application that you can install and run on your desktop; you do not need a web browser to run it. You can use Network Assistant to manage and monitor switch clusters or standalone devices.

Product Overview
Management Options
AC Power Connector
For AC-powered switches, the internal power supply is an autoranging unit that supports input voltages
between 100 and 240 VAC.
For the Catalyst 2440-24-DC power information, see
Appendix C,
“
DC Power Connections.
”
Cisco RPS Connector
For protection against a power supply failure, you can connect a Cisco RPS to the switch. The Cisco RPS
can support six external network devices and provide power to one failed device at a time. It
automatically senses when the internal power supply of a connected device fails and provides power to
the failed device, preventing loss of network traffic.
The Cisco RPS 300 has two output levels:
–
48
V and 12
V with a total maximum output power of 300
W.
The Cisco
RPS
675 has two output levels:
–
48
V and 12
V with a total maximum output power of 675
W.
These Cisco RPS models support the Catalyst 3550 switches:
•
Cisco RPS 300 (model PWR300-AC-RPS-N1) supports the
Catalyst 3550-12T, 3550-12G, 3550-24, 3550-FX, and 3550-48 switches.
•
