a thought....
See if your Switches you are using have a RPS (redundant power supply)
option available.. Which would mean that they also have a RPS connector
on the back (it is typically a funky looking molex connector).
If this is there (HP / Cisco / Dell etc have such options). then chances
are you can run them directly off DC power via the appropriate dc power
via the RPS connectors.
finding all devices that run directly off DC power tends to be the
biggest challenge, being creative can be fun.. Converting power tends to
be rather in-efficient .. and generate unnecessary heat.....in case you
get into a corner, keep in mind that a lot of the mikrotik routers can
be used as l3 managed switches..

We are moving to large 24 volt battery backup at all our sites. We
are using some Gige managed switches at sites that run off 120 VAC.
Anyone know of a rack mount device to convert 24 DC to 120 VAC to run
the switches?
