Abstract: In an embodiment, a system for balancing input current for power supplies a voltage detector configured to detect an input voltage to a power supply of a plurality of different power supplies. The system further includes one or more circuit elements configured to adjust one or more properties of the one or more circuit elements based at least in part on the detected input voltage in an attempt to maintain a consistent current input across the plurality of different power supplies.

Abstract: A control logic firmware is received at a power supply unit. The firmware specifies a configuration selected to place a magnitude of an impedance of the power supply unit above a magnitude of an impedance of a network data center power system. The control logic firmware is executed using a power factor correction circuit of the power supply unit including by setting a voltage loop phase margin of the power factor correction circuit to maintain the magnitude of the impedance of the power supply unit above the magnitude of the impedance of the network data center power system.

Abstract: A system for reducing the cost of network management by using a proxy agent and subchannel communications so fewer SNMP licenses and fewer protocol stacks are needed. Subchannel communication is achieved in a plurality of different embodiments. Embodiments having single subchannel transceivers, multiple transceivers, single multiplexer and multiple multiplexers are disclosed. An NMS process using routing table CRC to automatically detect when the NMS topology information is incorrect and automated topology discovery is disclosed. A process for automated discovery of redundant cables during automated topology discovery is disclosed.

Abstract: A system for transmitting subchannel data over the same media as high speed data, especially DC balanced high speed data. A digital transmitter receives subchannel data and modulates it onto a subchannel carrier as the host signal in the preferred embodiment using frequency shift keying. The FSK subchannel carrier is added by superposition to the high speed data signal. Because of the ability to have very narrow bandwidths for the passbands of digital IF filters, the receiver is more sensitive and less susceptible to the need for tuning to accommodate manufacturing variations in the rise times of the high speed data signals.

A digital transmitter receives subchannel data and modulates it onto a subchannel carrier as the host signal in the preferred embodiment using frequency shift keying. The FSK subchannel carrier is added by superposition to the high speed data signal. At the receiver, a low pass filter filters out the subchannel carrier frequency components which are then amplified and subjected to a two-pole anti-aliasing filter to remove the third and fifth harmonics. Analog-to-digital conversion is followed by a digital mix down to remove the subchannel carrier component using a local oscillator at the subchannel carrier frequency. An FIR low pass filter having a triangular time domain response performs anti-aliasing and leaves as an output only frequency components at the positive and negative deviation frequency for Mark and Space.
