Abstract
It may be beneficial in the case of an undesired lapse of external power to provide a back-up power supply to protect electronic components in an electronic equipment rack. This can frequently be difficult and/or costly due to the necessary addition of electronic infrastructure, such as cabling and/or logic. One means of overcoming this obstacle is to utilize unused or reserved conductors in an already utilized management cable to convey a loss-of-power signal to the components in tandem with the existing cable signals.
