1.0 PRODUCT SCOPE
This document describes the technical specifications, technical requirements and
installation instructions for the P30108, Lyte Lynx® 120 VAC to -48VDC External
Power Supply. It provides an understanding of the basic functions and features
available with this product.
2.0 PRODUCT OVERVIEW
P30108 Power Supply
2.1 System Requirements
SNC’s P30108 power supply is designed to externally power a 3-slot (P30075),
6-slot (P30112) or a 12-slot (P30069) Lyte Lynx Card Cage, requiring -48VDC for
station-side operation. Refer to document T0335 (P30075 3-Slot Card Cage),
T0359 (P30112 6-Slot Card Cage) and T0349 (12-Slot Card Cage) shipped with
the Lyte Lynx® card shelves for specifications and Installation information. A
local 120VAC power source is required for this power supply.
2.2 Intended Uses
The Power Supply is used to power the electronics on the station (upper) side of
the Lyte Lynx® fiber optic isolation cards which require -48VDC for operation.
The P30108 Power Supply converts 120VAC power from a local source to
48VDC.
NOTE: ALL fiber optic type cards (Voice, ISDN, ADSL, OPX) used with this
power supply must be optioned for 48VDC.
Lyte Lynx® systems are intended for use at power substations and similar
locations where high voltage isolation is required on the incoming copper telecom
pairs to protect the telecom network from harm and to provide a personnel safety
barrier against high voltages. This specifically includes protection from
longitudinal voltage surges and Ground Potential Rise (GPR) that may occur
during power system faults or lightning strikes. It may also be used to power any
equipment at substations or high voltage locations utilizing “smart jacks” which
requires -48 volts DC for proper operation.
3.0 PRODUCT FEATURES
The P30108 is an external stand-alone power supply designed to be used with
Lyte Lynx® 3-slot, 6-slot and 12-slot card cages. The power supply connects to a
120VAC local power source at the substation and converts it to 48VDC. The
power supply accepts a wide range of AC voltage and provides a maximum
power output of 65 watts.
