Power
Power is provided on site. A backup generator is also included. However, we include our own backup power using an EdgePower 24V 72W and two 24Ah LiFePO4 batteries. The batteries are mounted on a 2U shelf mounted towards the bottom of the equipment rack and provide ~1 day of backup power. The rack already contains other batteries for separate equipment so this is compromise between space, weight, and runtime.
Nodes
