The APC Rack Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) is a high-availability switch that provides redundant power to connected equipment via two inputs, one for each AC source. The output configuration is (8) C13 and (1) C19 The Rack ATS supplies power to the connected load from a primary AC source. If that primary source becomes unavailable, the Rack ATS automatically transfers loads to the secondary source. The transfer time from one source to the other is seamless to the connected equipment, as the switching occurs safely between the two input sources regardless of any phase differences. The units have built-in network connectivity, which allows for remote management through Web, SNMP, SHH, Telnet, or StruxureWare™ Data Center Expert. With multiple outlets, several devices can be plugged directly into the Rack ATS without the need for an additional Rack PDU. Current monitoring and alarms help prevent downtime to the equipment by providing aggregate current measurements and warnings when power consumption draws near the maximum rating of the Rack ATS. Built-in network and local interfaces allow for custom configuration settings for added flexibility.
Features
Provides protection in the event of a significant overcurrent event.
Offers simultaneous remote management access through Telnet and SSH
Monitors the aggregate current draw per power distribution unit.
A cyber-secure connection provides improved security for your infrastructure devices,
and machine data forms the basis of operational insights and analytics, aimed at reducing equipment maintenance costs.
The aggregate current draw per rack PDU is displayed on the unit via a digital display.
The local digital display helps installers avoid overloaded circuits by providing a visible warning when the current draw is close to the maximum amperage draw of the strip. (Available on designated SKUs only)
The transfer rate is within the industry standard and within the time power supplies will typically drop loads. The transfer of one power source to another is seamless to the connected equipment avoiding disruption of equipment performance.
Full-featured network management interfaces that provide standards-based management via Web, SNMP, and Command Line Interface.
