Another trend is AIoT devices, where machine learning algorithms are allowing IoT devices to use gathered data to independently analyse, learn, develop insights and make decisions. There are around 30 billion IoT connected devices, set to increase to 75 billion by 2025. The role they play in society will only escalate when combined with artificial intelligence.
To properly support the types and level of network traffic that a growing user base generates network upgrades must be properly designed. Design means secure on-boarding of new equipment without the degradation in quality of service that an ad-hoc approach to expansion can induce. This includes stable, clean power.
The network power supply must be a team player if network equipment is going to deliver. Peace of mind comes from knowing your network power supply partner has a long track record and a hard-earned reputation to protect.
Asian Power Devices Inc. (APD) have been making industry leading power supplies for more than twenty years and have long-standing partnerships with major global network equipment suppliers to help deliver dependable network performance, safety and environment-friendly efficiency; all confirmed by internationally recognised certifications.
High availability can be delivered through current-share and power ORing, so high-power systems like blade servers can share multiple power supplies for flexibility and redundancy in N+1 configurations. Stable, low-ripple power delivery is ensured, even to loads with large instantaneous current requirements, though peak current capacities up to 300% of maximum.
To guard from over voltage and over current events, APD build in multiple protections including surge protection that complies with ITU-T K.21 standards. This can be augmented to [DM] 6kV /6kV [CM] specs as per IEC-61000-4-5; Level-5, for areas with electrically noisy public grid systems or that experience more extreme weather conditions with a higher probability of lightning strikes. Static discharge is also brushed off with level 4 IEC (61000-4-2) ESD protection to 8kV contact/15kV air gap.
