S6720-EI Power Supply Configuration
An S6720-EI switch can have one or two power modules installed.
When a switch has two power modules installed, the two power modules work in 1+1 redundancy
mode. AC and DC power modules can be used together in the same switch.
Figure 2-11 shows the power supply connections of dual DC power modules. After DC power
is transmitted to the PWR module, the PWR module provides 12 V output voltage, and the
motherboard provides power for the entire device.

Figure 2-12 shows the power supply connections of dual non-PoE AC power modules. After
AC power is transmitted to the PWR module, the PWR module provides 12 V output voltage,
and the motherboard provides power for the entire device.
