Power Protection for Voice over IP, and other New, Mission-critical Network Applications

Overview The emergence of a new standard, IEEE 802.3af or Power over Ethernet, is changing the way we think about powering network components. It is now possible to power, from a central point located at the distribution/edge switch, a number of network devices through the same standard cable that is used for data communication, and that is already installed in most enterprises. This paper explains how by using MGE UPS Systems power protection devices, IT and facility managers and users can get the same level of availability from their VoIP architecture as they experience with the traditional circuit switched telephony systems.

IP over everything?
