The IONPS6-A is a redundant AC power supply module for use in the ION106 chassis, which is an intelligent, multi-service integration platform that offers first-rate solutions for integrating, optimizing and navigating networks. By cost-effectively integrating copper-based equipment into a fiber infrastructure, the ION Platform equips networks for the bandwidth, distance, and security demands of today, tomorrow, and every point in between. Designed for service providers, data centers, and core network applications, the ION Platform provides the secure network management of fiber interface points required for both carrier-class and enterprise-class services.

The ION 6-Slot Chassis can support up to two hot-swappable power supply modules which mount in the front of the chassis. A single power supply can be used to power all of the slide-in modules installed in the chassis, additionally; the system can be made redundant with the use of a second AC or DC power supply. In this configuration, the power supplies operate in an instant fail-over mode.

Management and configuration of the power supply modules is available when the IONMM management module card is installed in the ION106 chassis.
