The AT-RPS8000 unit is designed to provide redundant power for the AT-8300
Series Ethernet switches. The redundant power supply shares the load of
powering the switch with the standard power supply in the Ethernet switch. If
one power supply fails, the remaining unit supplies all power to the switch,
thereby preventing a system failure.
The AT-RPS8000 unit comes with one pre-installed power module
(AT-PWR8000) that can supply power to one Ethernet switch. The unit has
three expansion slots that can accommodate up to three additional power
modules. Each module supports one switch.
Features of the AT-RPS8000 unit include:
"
Redundant power for AT-8300 Series switches
"
A small 1.5U high, 19-inch rackmountable enclosure
"
One pre-installed AT-PWR8000 module
"
Three expansion slots for up to three additional AT-PWR8000
modules
"
Load-sharing with no interruption of service if a power supply fails.
