[AusNOG] ATS vs STS & recommendations?

[Brad Peczka]

A vote here for the APC units. I've got a number deployed, both in Data Centres and much further afield, and aside from a firmware bug a few years back they've been quite solid.

I've also heard good things about the Raritan units (http://assets.raritan.com/resources/data_sheets/raritan-ds-rack-transfer-switch.pdf) and the Eaton units (https://powerquality.eaton.com/australia/products-services/power-distribution/au-ats.asp), but have never used one personally.

Regards,
-Brad.

Previously deployed this one:

3

(Dynamix RP-ATS)

Had no problems - but only limited exposure to it's actual performance
'under fire' as our power supply was pretty reliable.

APC (Schneider Electric) have a range of their own.
