Cisco PWR-C6-1KWAC Power Supply Unit 1000W For C9200 Series Switches

Outfit your Cisco Catalyst 9200 series switch with the 1000W AC Configuration 6 Power Supply. Delivering up to 1000W, this configuration 6 power supply helps to support PoE device connections.

Features

- High Efficiency: Typically 80 PLUS Platinum-rated (or similar efficiency)
- Redundancy Support: Can be used in 1+1 redundant configurations for high availability
- Hot-Swappable: Can be replaced without powering down the switch
- Compact Design: Fits into standard PSU slots in supported Catalyst 9000 switches
- High PoE Budget: Because of the high output, especially valuable in switches with many PoE/PoE+ ports driving devices (IP cameras, phones, wireless APs, etc.).
- Global usage: Universal voltage input (100‑240 VAC) means usable in many geographic locations without special power‑adaptation hardware

Use / Compatibility Notes

Compatible with Catalyst 9200 / 9200L models that accept the Config‑5 PSU.
Be aware that some lower‑port or non‑PoE models may not need or support the full 1 kW, so check switch model and PSU slot.
Correct cabling and power infrastructure needed: the PSU draws substantial current when supplying full load + PoE. Ensure the AC side (power cord, breaker, UPS) can handle ~12‑16.5 A. Also ensure ventilation is adequate.
Useful in redundancy setups: you can install two PSUs so one can take over if the other fails, or share the load.
Suitable where AC supply may fluctuate but needs to be stable — the wide input range helps.
Requires adequate cooling and airflow because at full load it dissipates significant heat. Ambient temperature, altitude also matter.

Considerations / Limitations

You need to check that your switch supports this module (slot compatibility, physical bay, power budget). Even among Catalyst series, not every model will support 1 kW or this form‑factor.
Adequate ventilation and cooling are important: dissipating ~3,400 BTU/hr at full load requires good airflow. Heat and altitude limitations may reduce maximum reliable output.
Power source quality matters: clean AC supply, correct connectors, grounding, etc. The holdup time is sufficient for brief interruptions but not for longer outages.
