[AusNOG] Question about hardware spec for a DC

[John Wooler]

+1 to James's comment.

We have hardware in our racks that only has 1 power unit (like switches and routers) so our work around for this is a 1RU APC PDU that connects to both of the power feeds in our rack and the device connects to APC PDU.  So in the instance that feed A is disrupted, we still have feed B and the APC PDU picks up the transfer instantly from our testing.

Kindest Regards,

John Wooler,

Dear Alex



As an internal policy we make sure everything we invest in has a minimum of two power supplies, but this is an internal policy not a standard per say.



Kindest Regards

A question for the list.



When you buy equipment for a DC, would you expect it to come with dual power supplies, either as an option or as a standard?
