In this application, the Redundant Switch is connected to two separate
AC sources. Loads with single or multiple power cords can now have
N+1 power paths, to deal with a single AC source failure. The AC
sources can originate from a centralized UPS, a generator set, or even
separate utilities. Protection: This application protects against failure of
one of the two AC sources. These problems can range from a tripped
circuit breaker, to a utility blackout, to a centralized UPS failure.
In this application, the Redundant Switch is connected to two separate AC
sources. A single Smart-UPS is then connected to the Redundant Switch,
providing the Smart-UPS with dual AC input feeds. Protection: A Smart-UPS
in the power path will provide full-time surge suppression and provide bat-
tery backup if both of the AC sources fail. The Smart-UPS protects against
brownouts, blackouts and overvoltages. The Smart-UPS also provides
graceful server shutdown, power monitoring and power management.
Mirrored UPS Protection
With dual input power cords, the Redundant Switch
has the ability to source power from one of two sep-
arate AC circuits. The Redundant Switch continu-
ously monitors both AC circuits and will switch auto-
matically from the primary to the redundant AC
source. The seamless transfer to the attached loads
ensures the availability of continuous AC power as
well as safe server shutdown. The Redundant
Switch also provides user-configurable settings for
low voltage and AC line distortion, in order to meet
the power requirements of your site.
The Redundant Switch can be easily installed in any
19” equipment rack, occupying just one U (1.75”) of
rack space. It can also be mounted in the rear or
side of the rack, requiring zero U of rack space. It
ships with all appropriate rack-mount hardware for
two and four post racks.
Implementing Your Solution
Because its design is so flexible, there are numerous
configurations for the Redundant Switch, providing
different levels of availability. Three are outlined
below: Good, Better, and Best.
