[c-nsp] Catalyst 6509-E with dual supervisors, 6000W AC power supply with 120V inputs

[Ramcharan, Vijay A]

Are there folks out there who have been forced to run their Catalyst
6500-E switches on 120V circuits? 

Other than the expected lower power output and the inability to fully
populate the switches (depending on model), are there any issues with
running on the 120V circuits? 

 

Expected configuration is as follows: 

6509-E with dual VS-720-10G Supervisors

3 x 6748-GE-TX line cards

1 x IDSM2

2 x 6000W AC PS, each with dual 120V circuits 

 

According to Cisco's Power Calculator, the switch should be able to run
in redundant power mode with the above configuration with less than 80%
utilization on one power supply. 

 

Thank you for any feedback.
