Rackmount Source Transfer Switch For Increased Uptime
Posted by Jason Senior Sales on 27 November 2011 06:09 PM

Everyday questions from IT Managers:

  • How do you reliably power single power source switches in Rack?
  • I need an STS I can control over the network but who makes one?
  • I need a 1U 16amp STS, but having trouble finding one?
  • I need an extended warranty on my STS, but can't get three years or more, who provides one?

Well Critical Power Supplies has the answers in the form of the Eaton 16amp STS and the Riello MultiSwitch MNS

1. Eaton STS 16 IEC - 1U High

The Eaton STS 16amp IEC is an affordable solution for customers willing to add power redundancy to high voltage networking equipment like switches and routers. This source transfer switch will power them from 2 different sources (typically the mains power and a UPS, or 2 UPSs). Should one power source fail, the alternate one will switch over with no interruption to the connected equipment. Eaton STS can be connected to multiple devices at the same time while saving the cost of expensive redundant power supplies.
Features and Benefits

  • Provides power redundancy to high voltage IT equipment
  • Alternative to expensive redundant power supplies from IT vendors
  • Compact, 1U rack form factor
  • Seamlessly switches from one power source to the other
