Simply connect your single power inlet router, server or switch to the PTS power outlet, connect the PTS to a primary and secondary power source, and you have instant power supply redundancy with automatic power fallback capability. This helps customers achieve more granular control over power use, resulting in savings that reduce the Total Cost of Ownership.

This is. Learn how to use Server Technology's Fail-Safe Transfer Switch (FSTS) to increase uptime of critical rack devices installed with one power supply.
