Introducing the Switch Introducing the Switch ■ The Switch 2650 and 2650-PWR, has 48 auto-sensing 10/100Base-TX RJ45 ports with two dual-personality Gigabit Uplink ports. ■ The Switch 2626 and 2626-PWR, has 24 auto-sensing 10/100Base-TX RJ45 ports with two dual-personality Gigabit Uplink ports. ■ The Switch 2600-8-PWR, has 8 auto-sensing 10/100Base-TX RJ-45 ports with one dual-personality Gigabit Uplink port. The dual-personality ports are either auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45, or mini-GBIC (Small Form Factor Pluggable (SFP) ports in an Ethernet application). The Series 2600-PWR Switches incorporate two additional features. These switches offer two types of power, one for switch AC operating power, and the other for Power over Ethernet (PoE) power: ■ Power-over-Ethernet or PoE power - PoE technology allows IP tele- phones, wireless LAN Access Points and other appliances to receive power as well as data over existing LAN cabling, without needing to modify the existing Ethernet infrastructure. The Series 2600-PWR Switches are designed with an internal PoE power supply capable of providing 406 watts of PoE power (126 watts on the 2600-8-PWR). All of the Switch 2600-PWR ports can provide up to 15.4 watts of PoE power to connected devices. For further information regarding PoE power, see the PoE Planning and Implementation Guide which is on the documentation CD that came with the switch. ■ Redundant and External Power Supply Support - The Series 2600PWR Switches can be connected to a ProCurve 600 Redundant and External Power Supply (J8168A), hereafter referred to as the 600 RPS/ EPS or a ProCurve 610 External Power Supply, hereafter referred to as the 610 EPS, and receive redundant power from that unit. As an RPS unit, the 600 RPS/EPS will provide all the AC power necessary to keep the switch running should the switch internal AC power supply fail. As an EPS unit, the 600 RPS/EPS and the 610 EPS can supply up to 408 watts of PoE power to the switch if the internal PoE power supply of the switch should fail. When used with the Switch 2650-PWR, the additional EPS power can provide up to 15.4 watts per port for 48 ports. For further information regarding the 600 RPS/EPS or the 610 EPS PoE capabilities, see the PoE Planning and Implementation Guide, which is on the documentation CD that came with the switch. With these switches you can directly connect computers, printers, and servers to provide dedicated bandwidth to those devices, and you can build a switched network infrastructure by connecting the switch to hubs, other switches, or routers. In addition, the Series 2600 Switches offer full network management capabilities. 1-2
