Tripp Lite 200803016 95-2924 specifications PDUs with Automatic Transfer Switching ATS

PDUs with Automatic Transfer Switching (ATS)

Tripp Lite PDUs with Automatic Transfer Switching (ATS) reliably distribute AC power from a UPS system, generator or utility source to multiple devices. Each model includes dual AC input plugs and an internal automatic transfer switch between available power sources. These features safeguard the uptime of connected devices by automatically providing a backup source of AC power if one source fails or is taken off-line for maintenance. The two input cords can be connected to two utility sources, two generator sources, two UPS systems or any combination of these sources.

PDUs with Dual Independent Power Circuits

Dual Independent Power Circuit PDUs provide an efficient and manageable power distribution solution for multiple servers with redundant power supplies, combining the advantages of two separate high-current PDUs without the extra expense, increased space requirements and added management complexity. Input plugs, input power cords, breakers and outlets are color-coded to match each independent circuit, allowing simplified cable management for multi-server configurations.
