Power module redundancy
The IONPS-A, AC Power Module includes Instant Fail-Over (IFO) circuitry that
provides the capability for the primary Power Module to power the chassis backplane
while the auxiliary Power Module is in ‘hot’ standby mode. If the IFO circuitry detects
the loss of primary power, the auxiliary Power Module instantly provides power to the
chassis backplane. When primary power is restored, the IFO circuitry places the
auxiliary Power Module in ‘hot’ standby mode. The chassis primary Power Module is
located in the left slot of the chassis as viewed from the rear. The chassis auxiliary
Power Module is located in the right slot of the chassis as viewed from the rear. A
single Power Module placed in either location can power the chassis backplane.
Note: The IONPS-A, AC Power Modules DO NOT load share.
