Power Supply Overview

The RUCKUS ICX 7550 switch supports alternating-current (AC) 400 watt and 1200 watt power supplies, and a direct-current (DC) 400 watt power supply. The RUCKUS ICX 7550 is capable of running on one power supply but requires a minimum of two fan assemblies. The second power supply and additional fan assemblies provide redundancy.

If the second power supply and additional fan assembly slots are unused, cover them with filler panels.

Note: RUCKUS recommends that the RUCKUS ICX 7550 switch operates with two power supplies and three fan assemblies installed. If a power supply or fan assembly fails, it must be replaced as soon as possible.
Caution: AC and DC power supplies cannot be installed and used in the same device. Mismatched power supplies in the same device cause continual reboot on power up.

The power supplies in the RUCKUS ICX 7550 switch chassis can be removed and replaced without special tools. The device can continue operating during the replacement.

The ICX 7550 supports the following power supplies:

  • AC 400 watt power supply supports the following ICX 7550 models:
