What else does the solution require?

A customer plans to connect 40 Voice over IP (VoIP) phones and 8 security cameras to a switch:

– The VoIP phones are Class 2 PoE devices and require a maximum of 45W (draw a maximum of 5w)

– The security cameras are Class 4 PoE+ devices and require a maximum of 17W (draw a maximum of 20 W)

– The network architect is proposing an HP 5500-48G-PoE switch, which supports PoE and PoE+ and has a PoE power budget of 370W

– The customer and architect agree on the class form of power allocation

What else does the solution require?
A . A management module that is PoE+ capable
B . A redundant power supply for the switch that enhances the PoE/PoE+ budget
C . A power converter that enables the switch to provide PoE and PoE+ power at the same time
D . A 208-220V input power service
