Overview
The Cisco 600W Redundant Power System (RPS) provides power system
redundancy to external devices such as routers, switches, and hubs. The system
includes two fully redundant AC input power modules and four DC output power
modules for connection to external devices. The Cisco RPS supports
quasi-redundant, fully redundant, or redundant-with-reboot configurations,
depending upon the external device.
