C9400-PWR-3200DC Description

The C9400-PWR-3200DC is a Cisco Catalyst 9400 Series 3200W DC power supply module for Catalyst 9400 chassis at sites fed by DC power. It takes -40 to -72 VDC, extended to -75 VDC, at 36 A nominal per DC input, and delivers 3190 W at 55 VDC plus 10 W of 3.3 VDC auxiliary power for a 3200 W total. It can share a chassis with a 3200W AC supply in combined or N+1 mode only when the installed supplies have equal capacity and the AC inputs run at 220 VAC.

Application Scenarios

DC-Fed Telecom Equipment Room

In a telecom equipment room with a -48 VDC plant, the module powers a Catalyst 9400 chassis directly from the DC feed through its two isolated DC inputs, so no AC conversion stage is needed.

Redundant Power In A Core Chassis

A Catalyst 9407R or C9410R core chassis can fill its power bays with 3200W DC supplies and run them in redundant mode, so one supply can fail or be serviced while the 55 VDC rail stays up for the PoE line cards.

C9400-PWR-3200DC is the DC-input supply of this group: it takes -40 to -72 VDC, extended to -75 VDC, and delivers a 3190 W main output at 55 VDC (3200 W total with the 10 W auxiliary output), while C9400-PWR-3200AC delivers the same 3190 W main output only from a 180 to 264 VAC feed, so a closet powered from AC mains orders C9400-PWR-3200AC instead. C9400-PWR-3200ACT has the same AC input range and output as C9400-PWR-3200AC and is the Titanium 3200W option for AC sites that specify it. A chassis with a lighter PoE load can use C9400-PWR-2100AC, which reaches a 2102 W main output (2112 W total with the 10 W auxiliary output) at 200-240 VAC, and anything heavier needs a 3200W model. Cisco allows C9400-PWR-3200DC to share a chassis with C9400-PWR-3200AC or C9400-PWR-3200ACT in combined or N+1 mode, provided the installed supplies have equal capacity and the AC inputs run at 220 VAC.

Ordering Checklist

  • Catalyst 9400 chassis: Use a C9404R, C9407R or C9410R, where this supply is one of the four power supply options. It is specified for Catalyst 9400 Series chassis only.

Questions & Answers

  • Which Catalyst 9400 chassis accept C9400-PWR-3200DC?

    C9400-PWR-3200DC fits the Catalyst 9404R, C9407R and C9410R chassis, where it is one of the four power supply options alongside C9400-PWR-3200AC, C9400-PWR-3200ACT and C9400-PWR-2100AC. The module takes -40 to -72 VDC input and is specified for Catalyst 9400 Series chassis only.
  • Can C9400-PWR-3200DC share a chassis with a 3200W AC supply?

    Yes, in combined or N+1 mode, but only when the installed supplies have equal capacity and the AC inputs run at 220 VAC. The module supports redundant and combined power supply modes.
  • Which cord option should I select when ordering C9400-PWR-3200DC?

    Select CAB-OPTOUT when you order C9400-PWR-3200DC. The DC supply does not use an AC power cord, so the order must opt out of the default cord. Per the Catalyst 9400 ordering guide, the DC feed is wired to the module terminals by the site electrician instead.
  • How does C9400-PWR-3200DC restart when it is in protected mode?

    C9400-PWR-3200DC runs in auto-on mode by default. In protected mode, if the output drops to zero or the input is lost for more than 3 seconds, you must press the power button for 2 seconds to restore output. Plan remote hands for that case.
  • What inrush current must the DC plant breaker allow for C9400-PWR-3200DC?

    C9400-PWR-3200DC draws 50 A inrush on a cold start and 70 A on a hot start, per the Catalyst 9400 power notes. Size the DC plant breakers and feed cables to ride through those peaks, not only the 36 A nominal running current per input.
  • How many PoE devices can C9400-PWR-3200DC power once installed?

    One C9400-PWR-3200DC powers 213 devices at 15W, 106 devices at 30W or 53 devices at 60W. These counts match the 240V AC supply in the 3.2kW class. You must still confirm the full chassis budget with the Cisco Power Calculator, including supervisor and line card load.
