PWR-CC1-500WAC Description
PWR-CC1-500WAC is a Cisco Catalyst 8300 Series 500W AC PoE power supply for the 1RU Catalyst 8300 Edge Platform models C8300-1N1S-4T2X and C8300-1N1S-6T. It serves as a field-replaceable AC power module for branch edge router deployments that need PoE support from the platform power subsystem, with Cisco-confirmed 100 to 240 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz input, IEC C14 input receptacle, 80 Plus Silver efficiency, and a 250W PoE budget for supported 1RU systems.

Application Scenarios
PWR-CC1-500WAC fits C8300-1N1S-4T2X or C8300-1N1S-6T deployments that need the Cisco-listed AC PoE power supply instead of the default non-PoE 250W AC unit.
Service teams can reserve this SKU for Catalyst 8300 1RU sites where the replacement PSU must keep the 500W AC class and 250W PoE budget available.
Procurement teams should keep PWR-CC1-500WAC in the AC PoE lane and keep PWR-CC1-400WDC for the same 1RU platform group when the rack is designed around -40 to -72 VDC input.

- In a PWR-CC1-500WAC vs PWR-CC1-250WAC comparison, the main difference is the PoE power path: PWR-CC1-500WAC is the 500W AC PoE supply with a 250W PoE budget, while PWR-CC1-250WAC is the 250W AC default supply.
- The PWR-CC1-500WAC difference from PWR-CC1-400WDC is input design and output class. PWR-CC1-500WAC uses 100 to 240 VAC with an IEC 320 C14 receptacle, while PWR-CC1-400WDC uses -40 to -72 VDC with a terminal block.
- For buyers comparing which model to choose, the comparison should start with C8300 1RU chassis fit, AC or DC input, and whether the BOM requires Cisco’s AC PoE power option.
Selection Guide
1. Lock the chassis to the 1RU C8300 family
Order this PSU for C8300-1N1S-4T2X or C8300-1N1S-6T hardware. The 2RU Catalyst 8300 AC supplies use different part numbers and are not interchangeable with the 1RU AC supplies.
2. Treat PoE as the deciding AC supply requirement
Pick the 500W AC PoE line when the BOM must preserve Cisco’s 250W PoE budget on the 1RU router. Stay with PWR-CC1-250WAC only for the default non-PoE AC supply role.
3. Split facility power paths before sourcing
Use this PSU for 100 to 240 VAC racks with an IEC 320 C14 inlet. A DC plant request belongs on PWR-CC1-400WDC because Cisco lists that option with -40 to -72 VDC input and a terminal block.
4. Record base PID and spare PID separately
Quote records should distinguish PWR-CC1-500WAC from the spare part number PWR-CC1-500WAC=. That check keeps service-stock purchases aligned with Cisco’s ordering-guide notation.
