STK-RPS-500PS
The STK-RPS-500PS provides power backup to an Enterasys PoE-compliant A4 stackable switch.
If for some reason the switch looses power from its internal power supply, the STK-RPS-500PS can
provide up to 500 watts maximum operating power to support switch operation and the 48 Vdc
necessary to support 48 Vdc/data connections to PDs (Powered Devices).
Figure 2-11 shows the front and rear view of the STK-RPS-500PS power supply.
