Abstract
Detecting an imminent failure of a power supply. The power supply may supply power to an Optical Line Terminal (OLT) node, an Ethernet switch, a Community Access television (CATV) plant, an optical node, a smart optical node, an outdoor Wi-Fi hot-spot, an 802.11n Wi-Fi Access Point, a wireless base station, and a Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM). An internal computerized component periodically reads a set of measurements from one or more sensors affixed to a power supply. The internal computerized component and power supply may reside in a variety of different technical contexts. The internal computerized component analyzes the set of measurements using, at least in part, a weighted set of factors, to detect the imminent failure in the power supply. The weighted set of factors may be updated or revised over time and may be specifically tailored for use with specific types of power supplies.
