Tripp Lite's 120V 12A Local Metered Automatic Transfer Switch / ATS PDU provides a redundant power option for network devices with a non-redundant power supply configuration. Dual input cords support connections to separate PRIMARY and SECONDARY power sources. The ATS will normally maintain continuous output to all outlets as derived from the primary input power cable. If the primary power source becomes unstable or fails altogether, the ATS will switch over to the secondary power source until the primary input is restored and stable. Super-fast switchover between primary and secondary power sources occurs within milliseconds. ATS functionality is supported by any two compatible AC power sources, regardless of phase angle, to support a variety of advanced redundant power networking applications. Enables fault tolerant hot-swappable UPS protection when used with a single UPS and fully redundant UPS protection when each cord is connected to a separate UPS system. In a two-UPS environment, the primary input cable must be supported by a full time sine wave UPS with zero transfer time. Tripp Lite SmartOnline series is highly recommended for use as the primary UPS in a two-UPS application. ATS configurations utilizing separate mains circuits, backup generators and even separate utility power grid feeds are fully supported. On-board ATS processor constantly evaluates power quality on both input sources to prevent transfer to the secondary source when unavailable or of lower quality than the primary source. Front input LED's display primary or secondary power availability.
Features
Federal Trade Agreements Act / TAA compliant for GSA schedule purchases
120V 15A Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) / Local Metered PDU (Agency de-rated to 12A continuous)
Provides a redundant A/B power option for non-redundant networking equipment with a single input power cord
Digital display continuously reports total output power consumption in amps
1U horizontal rackmount form factor; 14.5 in. / 36.8 cm depth
8 built-in NEMA 5-15R outlets
Set of two 12 ft. / 3.6m NEMA 5-15P input cables support connection to separate PRIMARY and SECONDARY power sources
ATS circuits normally maintain output sourced from the primary input cable; As primary input power fails or becomes unstable, the ATS will switch to maintain output sourced from the secondary input cable until power on the primary input is restored and stable
ATS configurations enable fault-tolerant, hot-swappable UPS protection when used with a single UPS and fully redundant UPS protection when each cord is connected to a separate UPS system (in a two-UPS environment, the primary input cable must be supported by an online UPS with zero transfer time similar to Tripp Lite SmartOnline series)
Advanced ATS configurations utilizing separate mains circuits, backup generators and even separate out of phase utility power grid feeds are fully supported
On-board ATS processor constantly evaluates power quality on both inputs to prevent transfer to the secondary source when unavailable or of lower quality than the primary source
Super-fast switchover between primary and secondary power sources occurs in 2-7 milliseconds
Built-in card slot supports optional SNMPWEBCARD or WEBCARDLX for permanent upgrade to a switched & monitored PDU system
Outlets are factory programmed for sequential turn-on at 250 millisecond intervals when the PDU is first energized to prevent inrush-related equipment interaction on startup
Front panel LEDs confirm power availability on both input lines
Package Includes
ATS / Local Metered PDU with attached 5-15P primary input cord
Detachable C13 to NEMA 5-15P 12 ft / 3.6m secondary input cord
1U rackmount installation brackets
