Background and Discussion:

The Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS) devices are critical for backup and emergency power supply to our site enclosures that make up the Port Security Network (PSN) infrastructure. These 178 battery replacements assure that the UPS devices will maintain their integrity and functionality.

 

Expected Impact:

The battery replacements will extend the life and usability of the UPS devices by approximately 36 months.

 

Alternative Options: 

There currently are no alternative options for UPS functionality at the PSN sites that do not require these batteries.

 

Alignment with Goal(s):
