  • Patent number: 12687905
    Abstract: Devices, systems, methods, and processes for dynamic power management in network devices are described herein. Power consumption in network devices may fluctuate due to varying load conditions, leading to inefficiency if all power supply units (PSUs) in these network devices remain active all the time. To address this, a network device is provided with a power management logic that dynamically tunes a count of active PSUs in the network device based on a load demand handled by various PSUs in the network device. The power management logic may receive, from the PSUs, one or more load status signals indicating the load demand handled by the PSUs. Based on the one or more load status signals, the power management logic may determine whether to increase or decrease the count of active PSUs. Dynamically adjusting the count of active PSUs may enhance energy efficiency, reduce costs, and promote sustainability.
