Installation Note
This installation note provides important safety information, specifications, and instructions for
installing and removing the NETGEAR 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU XCM88PS1. This power
supply unit can be installed only in NETGEAR 8800 Series switches.
This note applies only to the 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU. For detailed information about
NETGEAR switches and all of their compatible PSUs, see the product data sheets available
online at

.
Overview
NETGEAR 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSUs are fully fault tolerant and load-sharing in an N+1
configuration. After the system is properly configured, should one PSU fail, the others will
provide sufficient power to operate a fully loaded switch. The power supply bay can
accommodate up to six hot-swappable 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSUs. See the
NETGEAR
8800 Series Chassis Switch User Manual
for information on configuring your switch.
The front panel on each 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU contains two cooling fans. Airflow
enters from the front vents on the PSU and exits to the rear vents of the switch. Airflow
through the 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU AC is independent from the airflow that exists
through the rest of the switch.
The AC input is located on the switch directly in back of each power supply bay. The front of
the 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU has a handle with a lever mechanism for both insertion
and removal.
Safety Information
Only trained service personnel should perform service to switches and their components.
Trained service personnel have read all related installation manuals, have the technical
training and experience necessary to be aware of the hazards to which they are exposed in
performing a task, and are aware of measures to minimize the danger to themselves or other
persons.
