Redundant Power Supply
Chapter 1 Introduction
1.1Product Overview
The TP-Link Redundant Power Supply (RPS) RPS150 is designed to maximize availability for the business network. RPS150 is used as a redundant power supply for TP-Link RPS capable L2 and L3 Managed switches. When worked with these switches, RPS150 provides a quick failover feature to ensure that the connected switches can work uninterruptedly in the event of an internal power supply failure. Without any necessary configuration, RPS150 can be easily installed as an independent power supply unit, or placed inside RPS2 chassis which is designed to accommodate two RPS150 for rack-mount installation. Overall, the system integration between TP-Link’s managed switches and RPS devices, provides you a resilient and highly available converged
network at an affordable price.
