Power Supply

Never insert or remove a power supply while the power cord is connected. Verify that cord has been disconnected from the power supply before installation or removal.

The Aruba 7200-series Power Supply adapts electrical power for use with the 7200. The chassis has two slots that can hold individual power supplies to support load sharing, redundancy, and fault tolerance. Two power supplies are available for use with 7200:

• 350W AC power supply
• 350W DC power supply

The Aruba 7200 is shipped with one hot-swappable, field-replaceable, AC power supply (DC power supply in 7200DC models) and one blank face plate. The included power supply is installed in the slot PSU 0, while slot PSU 1 has a blank face plate covering the opening. The controller can operate with one or two active power supplies, depending on the demands of your configuration.

Load Sharing

Load sharing occurs when more than one power supply of the same rating is installed in the 7200 and turned on. Load sharing divides the total power load of the controller among all available power supplies. Since the power supplies work together, the effective power capacity of the controller is increased with each additional power supply.

Redundancy

With power redundancy, the 7200 can continue normal operation even when a power supply fails or is turned off. When multiple power supplies are installed, if one becomes unavailable (fails, or is turned off or removed) the remaining power supplies will attempt to provide full power for the device. If the device's total power load does not exceed the combined rated output of the remaining, operational power supplies, the controller will continue to operate.

Hot Swapping

Hot swapping allows you to replace one failed power supply while the others provide full power. This makes it unnecessary to shut down the 7200 during the replacement procedure.

Hot swapping is supported only when power redundancy is in effect. This requires that after the target power supply is removed, the device's total power load does not exceed the combined rated output of the remaining power supplies

Modules

The 350W power supply is an autosensing, load-sharing, redundant power supply module that supports an input voltage of 100 VAC to 240 VAC (for AC) or -36 VDC to -72 VDC (for DC). Each power supply has a country-specific power cord for connection to an AC power outlet.
