Automatic Transfer Switch
Overview
The American Power Conversion (APC®) Rack Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) provides reliable,
redundant power to single-corded equipment. The Rack ATS has dual input power cords supplying
power to the connected load. If the primary source becomes unavailable, the Rack ATS will
seamlessly source power from the secondary source without interrupting critical loads. Networked
units have built-in network connectivity, which allows for remote management via Web, SNMP, or
Telnet interfaces.
