Power efficiency of power plugs used for the X440-G2-24p-10GE4?

[Marco_Muckenhau]

A customer is asking us on the energy efficiency of the PSUs used for the X440-G2-24p-10GE4.

More specifically, he would like to know:

• In which category would those PSUs fall on the Ecova 80 PLUS scale. https://plugloadsolutions.com/80PlusPowerSupplies.aspx.
• Is there any other (recognized) information available illustrating how energy efficient the X440-G2-24p-10GE4 is running PSU-wise in comparison to other switches (like it used to be available for the X440G1: http://www.tolly.com/DocDetail.aspx?DocNumber=212132).

Thanks a bunch for your help!

Hi Larry,

thanks a bunch for your fast reply!

Unfortunately, this is not sufficient (we already that information to him).

More specifically, he is interested in how much power (in 😵 is actually provided by the PSU to the switch compared to the power the PSU receives from the plug. See overview on the certification criteria below:

However, this certification is only the most prominent criteria the customer could think of.
-> If there is any other information available on your side, which could provide an idea of this aspect of energy efficiency, it would also be very helpful.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Marco

Hi, Marco. The Hardware Installation Guide contains power specs for the X440-G2. (Click the link and search for "Power Specifications.") You'll see statistics for heat dissipation and power consumption for every X440-G2 model. Is this what your customer is looking for?
