C9K-PWR-650WACL-R Description

The C9K-PWR-650WACL-R is a Cisco Catalyst 9500 Series 650W AC power supply module for European High Performance switch installations. The module accepts 90 to 264 VAC at 47 to 63 Hz, delivers 12V main at 54A plus 12V standby at 3A and carries a 2.5KV CM, 1KV DM surge rating with at least 12 ms of AC line hold-up at 100 percent load. The module must be installed in both power bays of a C9500-32QC, C9500-48Y4C or C9500-24Y4C in a dual-supply configuration, because a single unit causes abnormal operation.

Application Scenarios

European Dual-Supply Core Switch

In a European data center, two modules fill both power bays of a C9500-48Y4C so the switch runs redundant AC feeds with the supply type that the dual-supply rule requires.

Aggregation Switch On Low-Surge Mains

A regional wiring room with a 230 VAC feed can power a C9500-32QC or C9500-24Y4C from this module, using its 140 percent over-power protection rating.

C9K-PWR-650WACL-R and C9K-PWR-650WAC-R share 650W, 90 to 264 VAC input, the C14 receptacle and the same three Catalyst 9500 hosts, but C9K-PWR-650WACL-R is rated for 2.5KV CM and 1KV DM surge, at least 12 ms of AC line hold-up at 100 percent load and 140 percent over-power protection, against 4KV CM, 2KV DM, 20 ms at 90 percent load and 130 percent for C9K-PWR-650WAC-R. European installations with two supplies in the chassis require C9K-PWR-650WACL-R in both bays, and Cisco warns that a single one in a dual-supply configuration disrupts service. For a -48 VDC feed or 930W, order C9K-PWR-930WDC-R instead.

Ordering Checklist

  • Catalyst 9500 hosts: Order for C9500-32QC, C9500-48Y4C and C9500-24Y4C. This 650W AC supply is listed for these three High Performance models only.
  • Quantity for European dual-supply builds: Order two C9K-PWR-650WACL-R, one in each power supply slot. A single C9K-PWR-650WACL-R in a dual-supply configuration causes abnormal operation and service interruption.

Questions & Answers

  • Which Catalyst 9500 switches take C9K-PWR-650WACL-R?

    C9K-PWR-650WACL-R is listed for the C9500-32QC-A, C9500-32QC-E, C9500-48Y4C-A, C9500-48Y4C-E, C9500-24Y4C-A and C9500-24Y4C-E only. The module is the 650W AC WACL variant for European High Performance switch installations, and it is field-replaceable and hot-swappable.
  • Does C9K-PWR-650WACL-R need a matching second supply in the C9500-48Y4C-A or C9500-48Y4C-E?

    Yes. Install C9K-PWR-650WACL-R in both power supply slots of a C9500-48Y4C-A or C9500-48Y4C-E. A single C9K-PWR-650WACL-R in a dual-supply configuration causes abnormal operation and service interruption, so order two units, one for each slot. The related redundant order PID is C9K-PWR-650WACLR/2.
  • Should I select C9500-SPS-NONE when ordering a Catalyst 9500 with C9K-PWR-650WACL-R in Europe?

    No. The ordering guide preselects the second power supply, and C9500-SPS-NONE removes it. A single C9K-PWR-650WACL-R in the chassis can cause abnormal operation, so keep both bays filled. Per the Catalyst 9500 datasheet, the default build includes one AC supply with the second preselected.
  • Which supplies are unsupported in a Catalyst 9500 switch running C9K-PWR-650WACL-R?

    PWR-C4-950WAC-R, PWR-C4-950WDC-R and the 1600W AC and DC supplies are unsupported. Per the Catalyst 9500 datasheet, a C9500-48Y4C-A or C9500-48Y4C-E accepts 650W AC C9K-PWR-650WAC-R, C9K-PWR-650WACL-R and 930W DC C9K-PWR-930WDC-R, on a 90 to 264 VAC input.
  • What BTU/hr rating applies to a C9500-48Y4C-A with C9K-PWR-650WACL-R installed?

    A C9500-48Y4C-A with C9K-PWR-650WACL-R installed is rated at 1,856 BTU/hr in Table 13 of the Catalyst 9500 datasheet. Use that value for the rack cooling load, because the figure depends on the host model.
  • Which rack cooling figure should I use for a C9500-24Y4C-E running C9K-PWR-650WACL-R?

    A C9500-24Y4C-E running C9K-PWR-650WACL-R is rated at 1,454 BTU/hr in Table 13 of the Catalyst 9500 datasheet. Use that value for the rack cooling load, because the figure depends on the host model.
