RPS Systems
3Com switches are compatible with 3Com h3C RPS
solutions. These are enterprise-class power
redundancy systems that work with many 3Com
fixed-configuration switches. 3Com Corporation
manufactures networking equipment under the h3C
brand for sale into many markets.
These h3C RPS models are used with the Switch 5500:
› The T3C RPS 1000 is 1U high and provides multiple
power output connections to support multiple switch
units at the same time. Two power rectifiers can be
installed for 1+1 load sharing and power redundancy.
It supports switches with -54V RPS connections, and
delivers sufficient power to fully provision all PoE
ports of a switch with full power redundancy.
› The RPS 500 provides selective DC outputs of +12V
and -54V. This is a fixed-configuration 1U high unit
with a single power rectifier and a single power
connection. Sufficient redundant power is available
for provisioning a single Switch 5500 48- and 24-port
non-PoE unit.
POWERFUL, UNIFIED MANAGEMENT
The 3Com Operating System employed in the Switch
5500G is the same powerful software used in other
3Com enterprise stackable switches as well as in
3Com modular switch and enterprise router families.
This makes for an easy mix-and-match of networking
technologies with consolidated administration over
the entire network, as well as edge-to-core visibility
and control when using 3Com management
applications such as 3Com Enterprise Management
Suite and Network Director.
FUTURE-PROOF INVESTMENT
Standards-based switching and management features
provide a networking solution that maximizes IT
investment and supports emerging standards.
Comprehensive IPv6 management features, as well as
IPv6 traffic filtering and classification, prepares your
network for this next generation IPv6 version while
maintaining full compatibility with today's more
common IPv4.
