The HP ProCurve 600 RPS/EPS (J8168A) is a redundant and external power supply designed for HP switches, including PoE switches. It features six RPS (Redundant Power Supply) ports to back up the built-in switch power supply in case of AC power loss or fault, and two EPS (External Power Supply) ports to provide +50 Vdc external Power over Ethernet (PoE) power. The unit can provide redundant +12 V power to up to six connected switches via the RPS ports, and via the EPS ports, it can supply a maximum PoE power of 408 W to one device or half power (204 W each) if connected to two devices. It has LED status indicators for quick diagnostics. Input voltage is 100 to 240VAC at 50 to 60Hz.
