EX8208 Switch Configurations

Table 1 lists the seven sample hardware configurations for an EX8208 switch—base (AC), redundant (AC and DC versions), and fully loaded chassis (AC and DC versions)—and the components included in each configuration.

The switch is shipped in only four of these seven configurations: base (AC with 2000 W AC power supplies), base (AC with 3000 W AC power supplies), redundant (AC with 2000 W AC power supplies), and redundant (DC).
