Do the ProCurve Routing Switches support a redundant power supply?

Yes. The ProCurve Routing Switch 9304M ships with 1 power supply installed and has 1 open redundant power supply slot. The ProCurve Routing Switches 9308M and 9315M are shipping with 2 power supplies installed and have 2 open redundant power supply slots. When a redundant power supply is installed in the chassis, it operates on a load-sharing basis, meaning the two or more installed power supplies share the distribution of power. In a configuration where the ProCurve Routing Switch 9308M and/or 9315M chassis is fully loaded, at least a third power supply is needed. To achieve N+1 redundancy all four power supplies are required.
