installed in the switch. Depending on the power mode that you use for the switch, you need to consider
the following:
◦ For combined power mode (no power redundancy), there must be enough power supplies to power
all of the modules in the chassis (no extra power supplies are needed for redundancy).
◦ For n+1 redundancy mode, there must be enough power supplies to power all of the modules in
the chassis and there must be one extra power supply to provide redundancy if one power supply
goes down or is replaced. The maximum number of power supplies needed is the number used for
combined power mode plus one (n+1) for redundancy.
