POWER SUPPLY AND SOURCE RECOVERY MODE
In this mode, two power supply cards are installed and are
connected to two individual power sources. The MX2800 STS-1
handles any combination of power source or power supply failure.
Much like the backup design for the controller cards, the MX2800
STS-1 is able to internally re-route the power source if a power
supply card and the opposite power source fail. For example, in the
illustration given in Figure 8-3, failed

OURCE

is
connected to functional

ARD
A
and functional
P
OWER
S
OURCE

is
connected to failed

. In this case, the MX2800 STS-1
automatically connects

to
