B.20 Rack-mountable Dual Power Feed
Rack-mountable Dual Power Feed (RDPF) is a dedicated option for M8000.
The Rack-mountable Dual Power Feed receives its power supply from two
independent external power sources, ensuring that, even if a failure occurs in one
source, power is supplied to the system from the other source that in normal state. It
is applicable only for single-phase AC input. For three-phase AC power input, a
power cabinet is required.
