How to Select a 1000V Communication Power Supply Cabinet

What types of power systems are used in communications infrastructure equipment?

Communications infrastructure equipment employs a variety of power system components. Power factor corrected (PFC) AC/DC power supplies with load sharing and redundancy (N+1) at the front-end feed dense, high efficiency DC/DC modules and point-of-load converters on the back-end.

How to choose a power supply topology for a multi-output DSL converter?

Selection criteria for the power supply topology in multi-output DSL converters include requirements for performance (high efficiency and tight load and line regulation), simplicity, low cost and a small footprint with a low profile. High performance is achieved by selecting the appropriate topology and control circuit.

Do VoIP converters need power supply circuit topologies?

VoIP converters generally require power supply circuit topologies that are performance-driven (highly efficient with minimal conducted line current), easy to use and cost-effective with a small footprint and low profile. A number of topologies can be designed to meet these requirements to some degree.

What is a preferred power supply architecture for DSL applications?

A preferred power supply architecture for DSL applications is illustrated in Fig. 2. A push-pull converter is used to convert the 48V input voltage to +/-12V and to provide electrical isolation. Synchronous buck converters powered off of the +12V rail generate various low-voltage outputs.
