Optional Redundant Power Supply

The switch supports an optional Redundant Power Supply (RPS), that can supply power to the switch in the event the internal power supply fails.

Power Supply Sockets

There are two power sockets on the rear panel of each switch. The standard power socket is for the AC power cord. The socket labeled “RPS” is for the optional Redundant Power Supply (RPS).
