Geovision GV-POWER-72 Redundant Power Supply
Overview
The Geovision GV-POWER-72 is a 500W redundant power supply built for surveillance infrastructure where power continuity is non-negotiable. This accessory sits behind centralized NVR deployments, monitoring stations, and distributed camera networks — delivering failover protection when primary AC power fails. In a dual-power architecture, you get seamless switchover to a secondary PSU without dropping recordings or live streams. Deploy this when you have 32–64 camera systems running on GV-VMS and need the system to stay online through brief power events.
Compatibility
The GV-POWER-72 integrates with Geovision surveillance equipment and 19-inch rack-mount enclosures. It pairs with GV-VMS (supporting up to 32 channels) and GV-VMS Pro (up to 64 channels) installations, as well as Geovision NVR/DVR platforms operating in centralized monitoring stations and server rooms. Confirm your PSU socket type and voltage requirements against your existing rack setup before ordering — redundant configuration demands two identical units wired to a single load.
Installation Notes
Mount the GV-POWER-72 in a standard 19-inch rack environment with adequate ventilation to dissipate 500W of heat. Ensure both PSU units (if configured for redundancy) draw from separate AC circuits or UPS branches to avoid a single-point failure. Verify cable gauge for power distribution from supply to load — undersize wiring will cause voltage sag under full load. Test failover behavior during commissioning by temporarily disconnecting the primary PSU; the secondary should energize transparently without interrupt.
