Micro-ATS Single Device ATS

In the data center world we see the demand for dual power feeds (true A/B connections) everyday. Some equipment only has a single PSU, though…what is one to do? You employ an automatic transfer switch or ATS. This is a device that will switch between multiple power sources automatically in case a single feed fails.

The Zonit Micro-ATS is an automatic transfer switch designed for a single device. These super cute little guys have a break before make technology and will also transfer if the phases are out of alignment.

What’s the downside to these guys? A single unit will cost you as much as a standard 1U ATS($300-400). So, having said that, I’ll choose the 1U ATS and have the additional ports. Neat idea, though.
