RPS/EPS Operation

The RPS/EPS monitors the power signal from the switch by detecting that the RPS/EPS is connected to a switch with an RPS/EPS cable. When the power from the switch is no longer detected, the RPS/EPS will turn on and provide power to the switch within 1ms.

The RPS/EPS supports hot plugging of the RPS/EPS cable without causing a reboot of the switch or causing the power supply in either the RPS/EPS or switch to shut down temporarily or permanently. For more information refer to the documentation that came with the RPS/EPS.
