Load Sharing Load sharing occurs when more than one power supply of the same rating is installed in the 9240 gateway and turned on. Load sharing divides the total power load of the gateway among all available power supplies. Since the power supplies work together, the effective power capacity of the gateway is increased with each additional power supply.
PSU Slot 1 The 9240 gateway includes a PSU slot 1 that has a filler panel covering the opening. PSU slot 1 is for an additional power supply module that may be required for redundancy. PSU slot 1 can hold the same power supply module as PSU slot 0.
