Calculating the Power Consumption of Your EX8208 Switch Configuration
Use the following procedure to determine the maximum power you need to supply to
the switch. To calculate maximum system power consumption, you first determine the
combinedmaximuminternalpowerrequirementsofalltheswitchcomponentsandthen
divide this result by the power supply efficiency.
To calculate maximum system power consumption:
1. Determinethemaximumpowerconsumptionofthebasechassiscomponents(that
is, the components other than the line cards):
•
Use Table 48 on page 115 if your switchis configured forN+1 powerredundancy or
if your switch is configured for N+N power redundancy and is running Junos OS
Release 10.1 or earlier.
•
Use Table 49 on page 116 only if your switch is running Junos OS Release 10.2 or
later and power management is configured for N+N power redundancy.
NOTE: In Junos OS Release 10.2 or later,if power management is configured for N+N
redundancy,themaximumfanspeedislowered,reducingthechassis’maximumpower
consumption.
