Number of PoE Switches
Indicate the number of Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches you have installed in this closet.
Total Load (Power Consumption) of Each PoE Switch
You can often find information about your equipment's wattage requirements from the manufacturer's documentation or the equipment nameplate. (If the power requirements are listed in amps, multiply by the input voltage to find the wattage.) For assistance, contact our application specialists at cpdipresaleshelp@eaton.com or +1 (888) 447-6227.
- Number of VoIP Phones: select the number of phones connected to this switch.
- Wattage of Each VoIP Phone: VoIP phone power requirements vary from around 3W to as much as 13W. The actual power draw of your phone will depends on its features, state (call or idle) and the peripherals attached to it. Check your phone's specifications for your phone's maximum power requirements.
- Number of Ports on the Switch: indicate the number of ports on this switch.
- Other Devices Connected to Switch: if other powered devices are connected to this switch (in addition to phones), enter the total power draw of these devices.
Total Power Consumption of PoE Switches
This calculated value represents the total power consumption (in Watts) of all switches.
Total Power Consumption of All Other Connected Equipment
This is the combined wattage of all other equipment connected to the UPS (e.g. non-PoE switches, console server, midspan, router).
Allowance for Future Growth
Spare power capacity to allow for growth in the number of phones supported.
Total Closet Power Consumption
The total load of all equipment connected to the UPS.
Minimum Battery Backup Runtime
The minimum number of minutes the UPS will be required to power your phones and other equipment in the event of a power outage. If you have generator power, this will be the amount of time necessary to switch to generator power. If you don't have a generator, the UPS should be capable of powering devices for the duration of the outage.
On-Line UPS Systems
Key Benefits:
- Delivers pure sine wave power (the highest level of power protection available) to sensitive switches and other devices
- Double-conversion technology continually converts incoming AC power into filtered DC power, and then re-synthesizes it back into AC power with a pure sine wave
- Constant on-line operation completely isolates sensitive equipment from every power problem on the AC line, plus reliable battery backup keeps your network running even in the case of a blackout
Line-Interactive UPS Systems
Key Benefits:
- Keeps equipment working through periods of low voltage (brownouts) without draining battery power
- Provides reliable battery backup to keep switches up and running through blackouts
- All AC outlets protect against surges and line noise
