2. Connect one end of the NETGEAR RPS cable to the RPS connector on the switch rear panel. 3. Connect the other end of the NETGEAR RPS cable to the RPS4000v2 rear panel RPS port connector. 4. Reconnect the AC power cord to the switch or device. - Page 16 • The CS selector can be set on or off **** The RPS4000v2 turns off current sharing when two APS1000W AC input ranges are not in same ranges In addition to these settings, be aware of compatibility issues that can cause the RPS4000v2 to power off.
- Page 17 RPS4000v2 Hardware Installation Guide • Both RPS ports are in the same group but not set to the same setting. • The RPS ports do not have their selectors set to the correct Type and CS settings for their respective operation modes, as shown in Table 4, Operation modes.

Page 18: Mode 1: Legacy Rps Operation Mode
One RPS cabled to one switch and one APS1000W dedicated to one switch are required to use this mode. If a Type B switch is connected to RPS4000v2 in this mode, the switch will only receive maximum power as indicated in Table 3 on page 16. -
Page 19: Mode 2: Normal Operation Mode
On Type B switches such as the M5300 series switch, each RPS port delivers power from each APS1000W to the connected switches. For each RPS port to provide power, its corresponding APS1000 PSU must be installed in the RPS4000v2 chassis. Figure 6. Normal operation mode diagram... -
Page 20: Mode 3: High Power Operation Mode
Mode 3: High power operation mode This mode supports Type B switches such as the M5300 series switches. RPS ports deliver power to switches when the RPS4000v2 detects a connected Type B switch over the I2C bus. In this mode, the RPS port can provide a maximum 1440W of PoE power to switches when 2 PSUs are present and work well in the same group. -
Page 21: Mode 4: Poe Power N+1 Operation Mode
Mode 4: PoE power N+1 operation mode This mode supports Type B switches such the M5300 series switches. RPS ports deliver power to switches when the RPS4000v2 detects a connected Type B switch over the I2C bus. In this mode, one APS1000W can provide power to 2 RPS ports in the same group. -
Page 22: Mode 5: System Power N+1 Operation Mode
In this mode, an APS1000W can be installed in any bay. If the Type B switch is connected to RPS4000v2 in this mode, the switch will only receive maximum power as indicated in Table 3 on page 16. -
Page 23: Mode 6: Standby Mode
None of the other APS1000W PSUs provide power in this mode. One RPS cable to one switch and one or more APS1000W installed in the RPS4000v2 bays are required to use this mode. Figure 10. Standby mode diagram... -
Page 24: Mode 7: Current Sharing Operation Mode
When ports 1 or 3 do not have switches connected, ports 2 and 4 can provide 1440W of power. Note: RPS Ports 1 and 3 take priority. The RPS4000v2 will cutoff output power to ports 2 and 4 if switches are connected to ports 1 and 3. -
