AR740 RPS Redundant Power Supply
(AT-AR725, AT-AR745 only)
Each AR740 RPS can provide power supply and mains circuit redundancy for
up to two AC routers. The AR740 RPS cannot be used with DC versions of the
routers. Figure 17 shows the AR740 RPS front and rear panels.
Installation instructions for the AR740 RPS can be found in the AR740 RPS
Quick Install Guide. This guide is packed with each AR740 RPS, or can be
downloaded from www.alliedtelesis.com/support/software/.

DC supply cables Two DC supply cables are packed with each AR740RPS. If making you r own
cable, use a cable that conforms to UL2464, and has at least twenty-three
24 AWG cores. The cables will need a DB25 male connector on both ends and
should be wired in a straight-through configuration. Pin outs for the
connectors are listed in Tabl e 6.
