FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) July 30, 2009 --

Long Branch, NJ - Shore Microsystems today announced the availability of dual fixed redundant power supplies for its 1RU Network Protection Chassis(NPC) product line of Ethernet Link Protectors and Bypass devices. The dual internal power supplies are an optional feature for the NPC-2 2-slot chassis to insure exceptionally high availability of mission-critical Ethernet links. The dual power inlet design uses high MTBF internal 110/220V 50/60HZ autosensing AC power supplies each of which can power the unit individually. Power supplies are monitored for proper operation and alarms are raised for failure conditions. The NPC-2 is also available in a single high MTBF power supply configuration for lower cost applications.

“The use of dual AC power inlets and redundant power supplies in the NPC-2 chassis was requested by our customers to add even more assurance of continuous uptime for their mission critical Ethernet links and applications” said Gary Steidl, Director of Sales/Marketing at Shore Microsystems. “Our engineers implemented this capability with dual filtered AC power inlets – not afterthought cheap wall-wart solutions - in keeping with Shore's high availability approach to Ethernet Link Protection. This capability further extends Shore's layered approach to Ethernet redundancy including power redundancy backed up with our Straight Through Wire™ technology for our smaller port-count NPC-2 chassis system.”

Shore Microsystems delivers quality redundant products for advanced networks with satisfied clients in commercial, industrial, and military applications. Shore Microsystems leads the industry in Redundant Ethernet LAN technology. Shore’s Link Protector product line insures data flow during network failures by creating redundant connections for mission critical Ethernet links.
