RPSOverview
TheRPSprovidesasimpleandeconomicalsolutionforprovidingabackuppowersource
foruptoeightSecureS tackEthernetswitchdevices.WhenaPSMisconnectedtoaswitch
device,thePSMcontinuouslymonitorstheinternalpowersupplyoftheswitchdevice.If
apowerinterruptionisdetected,thePSM
isautomaticallytriggeredtoprovidepowerfor
theswitchdevice,preventinganinterruptioninnetworktraffic.
Theendresultisamorereliablenetworkinfrastructure,protectingthenetworkfroma
singlesourceoffailurefromanetworkdevicepowersupply.
