28 Introducing the 7100 Series components

About additional components

Dual redundant power supplies

The 7160 and 7161 have dual redundant power supplies. The dual power
supplies ideally connect to separate power sources.

Each of the redundant power supplies has two internal power-main connections.
In the event of a failure of one power-main, the other one continues to provide
uninterrupted power.

In case of failure or when only one power supply is connected to a power source,
the power supply emits a high-pitched alarm.
