More information on Cisco: https://www.cisco.com + Cisco helps seize the opportunities of tomorrow by proving that amazing things can happen when you connect the unconnected. An integral part of our DNA is creating long-lasting customer partnerships, working together to identify our customers’ needs and provide solutions that fuel their success.
We have preserved this keen focus on solving business challenges since our founding in 1984. Len Bosack and wife Sandy Lerner, both working for Stanford University, wanted to email each other from their respective offices, but technological shortcomings did not allow such communication. A technology had to be invented to deal with disparate local area protocols, and as a result of solving their challenge, the multiprotocol router was born.

EMR Additional Notes:
- Fault-Managed Power Technology:
- Advanced technology designed to elevate the safety, dependability, and efficiency of power systems.
- Fault managed power is an advanced technology designed to elevate the safety, dependability, and efficiency of power systems. By actively identifying and addressing faults with power networks, FMP ensures a more robust and consistent power supply, leading to heightened safety and enhanced operational performance, while also enabling faster deployment and reduced material. Additionally, compared to certain traditional power distribution methods, fault managed power can achieve higher efficiency.
- In an electric power system, a fault or fault current is any abnormal electric current. For example, a short circuit is a fault in which a live wire touches a neutral or ground wire.
- Fault-Managed Power System (FMPS):
- Fault management in power systems is an intelligent safety feature that monitors for, and detects, pre-defined faults. When a fault is detected, power is shut off almost immediately (within a few milliseconds) to prevent electrical shock, fire, or damage to equipment. This allows higher voltages to be safely carried along cables, which itself comes with many benefits. If you’re familiar with GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupters), you can think of it like a digitally controlled, high speed GFCI that protects against more types of faults, and also works for DC (direct current) power.
