Redundant Power Systems are enterprise-class power
redundancy systems that work with many 3Com fixed-configuration
switches. Redundant power systems (RPS) are an important element for
enterprise networks to provide high network availability. RPS power
is particularly important for voice-ready networks as an element to
providing highest phone uptime.

3Com Corporation manufactures networking equipment under the H3C
brand for sale into many markets. These H3C-brand RPS units are com-
patible with many 3Com enterprise fixed-configuration switches from
the 3Com Switch 5500G, Switch 4800G, Switch 4500G, Switch 4200G,
Switch 5500, Switch 4500 and Switch 4210 families. They are also
usable with H3C-brand switches.

Redundant power systems provide two functions for compatible fixed-
configuration switches:

An RPS delivers redundant power to switches so there is continued

An RPS provides more power for IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet
than what the switches alone can provide. For example, a 48-port PoE
switch might have a PoE power budget of 360 Watts, which means
that approximately ½ the ports can support full IEEE 802.3af PoE
power of 15.4 Watts. With an RPS providing additional power, all
48 switch ports can provide full 15.4 Watts of PoE power.

MODELS
Three models of RPS are offered to support 3Com and H3C fixed-configu-
ration switches. Specific RPS units are matched to specific switches based
on the switches’ power specifications.

RPS 1000
PoE/non-PoE redundancy with operation at -54V supporting
multiple switches.
This 1U high unit supports up to two power rectifiers and two power
inputs for 1+1 power redundancy, and multiple power output connec-
tions to support multiple switch units at the same time. It supports
switches with -54V redundant power connections with sufficient power
for to fully power all PoE ports of a switch with full power redundancy.

RPS 800
Single-switch non-PoE redundancy with operation at +12V
and -54V.
A fixed-configuration 1U high unit with a single power rectifier and a
single power connection. Sufficient redundant power for a 48-Port non-
PoE stackable switch.
