Distributed Redundancy: "Maximum Availability at Minimal Cost"

Overview This white paper concerns the recently developed power protection system, distributed redundancy. Distributed redundancy ensures 100% power as it dramatically improves power availability, approaching the virtual 100% level. The unprecedented level of power protection is assured regardless of platform, application criticality, or downtime sensitivity - when even one hour per year of power system downtime is unacceptable. Moreover, distributed redundancy doesn't compromise any aspect of system management, from the ability to easily perform equipment maintenance to the ability to fit within an investment/liability budgetary ratio. What follows is an examination of factors that led to the need for this level of protection as well as a detailed discussion of the components that comprise distributed redundancy.
