Does the 2910al support an external power supply to provide redundant power?
Yes, currently the 2910al supports the 620 as redundant RPS. If the internal power supply in the switch fails, the RPS/EPS unit will immediately provide all the power necessary to keep the switch running. However, the 2910al switches do not support EPS (PoE+) power from the 620 RPS/EPS. The ProCurve 630 Redundant and External Power Supply (to be released in the future) will support these switches with EPS (PoE+) power. Refer to graphic below to view the front and back of the 620 redundant external power supply.
