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 www.netgear.com.
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.
8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU XCM88PS1 Installation Guide

WARNING!
NETGEAR 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSUs do not have switches for
turning the unit on and off. Remove the wall plug from the
electrical outlet to disconnect the power to an 8800 Series
100-240VAC PSU. Ensure that this connection is easily accessible.
Do not connect the power supply into an electrical outlet when the
power supply is outside the chassis; doing so would expose a
hazardous energy and poses a potential shock and fire hazard.
WARNING!
NETGEAR 100-240VAC PSU XCM88PS1 Netzteile haben keinen
An- Aus Schalter. Die Stromzufuhr zu einem 100-240VAC PSU
XCM88PS1 Netzteil wird durch das Ziehen des Netzkabels
unterbrochen. Es ist sicherzustellen das diese Verbindung leicht
zugänglich ist.
Das Netzteil nicht ausserhalb von dem Gehäuse an das Netz
anschliessen da hierdurch gefährliche Spannungen zugänglich
werden sowie die Gefahr von einem elektrischem Schlag und/
oder Feuergefahr besteht.

Each power cord is enclosed in a plastic wrapper with it’s model number and product name
on it. Locate the correct cord based on your region.
If you use a 110 V AC power supply cord, the maximum DC output power of the PSU is 700
W. If you use a 220V AC power supply cord the maximum DC output power of the PSU is
1200 W.
All power supply cords must meet the following requirements:
• The power supply cord must be agency-certified for country of use, and rated at 10A by
in-country regulatory authority.
• The power supply cord must have an IEC 320 C13, 90-degree angle plug to connect to
the IEC320 C14 connector on the power supply.
• The power supply cord must have an appropriately rated and approved wall plug
applicable to the country of installation.

WARNING!
Make sure that the source outlet is properly grounded before
plugging the AC power cord into the 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU.
Pre-Installation Requirements
You need the following tools and equipment to install or remove a 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU:
• ESD-preventive wrist strap
• Power supply cord
• Thermal protective gloves (required for removal; PSU may be hot to touch)

Figure 2. Installing a 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU
4. Secure the PSU by pushing down on the locking handle until it clicks into place.
5. If you are replacing a power supply, you do not need to unplug the AC power cord. For a
newly installed power supply, connect an appropriate AC power cord as follows:
a. If necessary, remove the power cord retaining bracket as described in the hardware
installation guide for your switch.
b. Connect the new AC power cord to the AC input on the front of the switch to the wall
outlet on the other end. after the cord is connected, re-install the power cord retainer.
c. Attach the power cord retaining bracket as described in the hardware installation
guide for your switch.
Note: Leave the ESD strap permanently connected to the switch so that it
is always available when you need to handle ESD-sensitive
components.
To install additional 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSUs, repeat steps step 2 through step 5.

Fuse
The 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU line and neutral legs are both fused. Power to the switch
may still be live if the neutral fuse is open. This is not a field operator replaceable fuse. In the
event of failure, immediately return the 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU for a complete
replacement.
WARNING!
Field operators must not attempt to configure or replace fuses
within 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSUs! In the event of failure,
immediately return the defective PSU for a complete replacement.
Specifications
The 8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU functions from 90 V to 264 V and 47 Hz to 63 Hz AC
Input. Each PSU provides 700 W to the system if the AC input is in the 110 V low-line output
power range and 1200 W to the system if the AC input is in the 220 V high-line output power
range.
8800 Series 100-240VAC PSU XCM88PS1 Installation Guide
More PSUs are needed to support the load if the low-line power range is used to power the
switch. The software determines the maximum available power required for the switch and
enables the modules accordingly.
