PWR-C6-715WDC Description
PWR-C6-715WDC is a Cisco Catalyst 9200 Series Config 6 715W DC power supply spare for supported C9200 PoE switch power bays. It provides a terminal-block DC input option for -40 to -72 VDC plant power, is listed by Cisco for specific 24-port and 48-port Catalyst 9200 PoE rows, and is supported from Cisco IOS XE 17.8.1 for deployments that need DC-fed access-switch power or a matching spare PSU.

Application Scenarios
Use PWR-C6-715WDC when a C9200 PoE switch must move to a DC plant feed and the installed model appears in Cisco’s Config 6 715 W DC power table.
Operations teams that carry both Catalyst 9200 families can reserve PWR-C6-715WDC for C9200 PoE rows and keep PWR-C5-715WDC for the C9200L PoE rows shown in Cisco documentation.
Power planners should check whether the target switch is a 24-port or 48-port PoE model because Cisco lists 740W with the second DC PSU on 24-port rows and 970W on 48-port rows.

- In a PWR-C6-715WDC vs PWR-C5-715WDC comparison, the confirmed DC electrical values match at 715W output, -40 to -72 VDC input, 20-11.3A input current, terminal-block input, 25A feed rating, and 3.5 lb weight.
- The PWR-C6-715WDC difference from PWR-C5-715WDC is the Config code and table placement: Cisco shows the C6 DC spare on C9200 PoE rows and the C5 DC spare on C9200L PoE rows.
- For PWR-C6-715WDC vs PWR-C6-600WAC, the main comparison point is facility power and wattage class because the current SKU is a 715W DC spare while PWR-C6-600WAC is a 600W AC supply for the listed C9200 24-port PoE and C9200-48PL rows.
- In a PWR-C6-715WDC vs PWR-C6-1KWAC comparison, which model to choose depends on DC conversion versus AC full-PoE planning because Cisco lists 485W with one DC PSU and 740W with one 1KW AC PSU on supported 48-port rows.
Selection Guide
1. Anchor the order to a C9200 PoE row
Choose PWR-C6-715WDC when the installed switch is a C9200 PoE model listed with the Config 6 715 W DC spare and the site requires a -40 to -72 VDC input path.
2. Do not merge the C6 and C5 receiving lanes
Keep the C6 PID on C9200 PoE orders and move C9200L PoE replacements to PWR-C5-715WDC because the Cisco table placement separates those two DC spare paths.
3. Use AC SKUs only for AC-fed builds
Select PWR-C6-600WAC or PWR-C6-1KWAC instead of PWR-C6-715WDC when the rack feed is 100 to 240 VAC and the switch belongs to the matching 600W or 1KW AC power class.
4. Verify the software and PoE target together
Confirm Cisco IOS XE 17.8.1 or later before the spare is staged, then map the endpoint load to the listed 485W single-DC-PSU value or the 740W and 970W second-DC-PSU rows.
PoE Power Planning
|
Planning Item |
Cisco-Confirmed Value |
Procurement Impact |
|---|---|---|
|
One DC power supply |
485W available PoE on listed C9200 PoE rows |
Sets the endpoint budget when one Config 6 DC spare is installed |
|
Second DC power supply on 24-port rows |
740W on listed C9200 24-port PoE rows |
Confirms the higher DC budget for 24-port access-switch orders |
|
Second DC power supply on 48-port rows |
970W on listed C9200 48-port PoE and partial-PoE rows |
Prevents 48-port DC designs from assuming the 1440W value shown with 1KW AC supplies |
|
AC and DC mix |
PWR-C5-715WDC and PWR-C6-715WDC can mix with AC power supplies as primary or secondary on the same C9200L or C9200 device |
Allows mixed input-power planning only where the exact switch row and software support it |
|
Software support |
Cisco IOS XE 17.8.1 and later |
Blocks orders for switch software baselines that cannot support the 715 W DC spare |
Ordering Checklist
|
Check Item |
What to Confirm |
Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
|
Exact Cisco PID |
PWR-C6-715WDC= |
Prevents receiving a Config 5 DC spare or an AC supply under the wrong line |
|
Switch family |
C9200 PoE row listed for the 715 W DC Config 6 spare |
Keeps the C6 DC module aligned with the Cisco-supported platform table |
|
Software release |
Cisco IOS XE 17.8.1 or later |
Confirms the switch can recognize the 715 W DC spare family |
|
Facility power |
-40 to -72 VDC input through a terminal block |
Avoids pairing a DC PSU with an AC cord and receptacle plan |
|
Feed rating |
25A power-feed planning for the DC module |
Prevents the wiring review from treating this as a 15A IEC AC PSU |
|
PoE target |
485W with one DC PSU, then 740W or 970W with the second DC PSU depending on switch row |
Keeps endpoint counts tied to Cisco’s DC power table |
