Critical Power from GE
Overview
The Compact Power Line platform
is designed to provide highly reliable
DC power for 48V distributed power
architectures. A single shelf conguration
provides up to 14kW of 48V output
power in 1U high and mounts in 19-
inch or 23-inch wide frames. The CPL
product platform is easily expandable
for future growth, and is a reliable DC
power solution for mission-critical
enterprise and telecommunications
network equipment.
Shelf Options
The CP product line provides several
shelf options with common or split DC
output congurations. There are two
families of CPL shelves; one used with
a Pulsar Edge controller, the other used
without a controller or with a customer’s
own controller using industry standard
PMBus/I2C communications. J85480S1
and J2014003 shelves have four slots
for rectiers or converters (PEMs) and
use PMBus/I2C for communications.
J2007001 and J2014004 shelves have
four slots with an additional space for
a full-feature Pulsar Edge Controller.
The Pulsar Edge controller has secure
Ethernet connectivity to facilitate
remote network management to
monitor and control rectiers, batteries,
and distribution. CPL is ideal for a
broad range of applications requiring
highly ecient 48V DC power.
Rectier Options
CPL family of rectiers are single phase,
constant power rectiers with rear power
entry that provide from 2000 Watts to
3500 Watts of highly reliable DC power.
The class leading density, constant
output power characteristics, extended
temperature range, universal AC input,
and compact size are key attributes that
make this rectier the right choice for
your power needs. CPL converters share
the same form factor as CPL rectiers
and provide wide range 40V-72V DC
input and regulated 48-54V DC output.
Airow direction is front to rear.
Pulsar Edge Controller
CPL family of products support the
Pulsar Edge controller delivering
large system intelligence in a small
system form factor. Secure Ethernet
connectivity with SNMP helps facilitate
remote network management.
Shelf Options
J85480S1 and J2007001 shelves provide
1RU rack density up to 11kW and support
appliance connector (C13 or C19) AC
connection options. The shelves support
2kW, 2.5kW and 2.7kW power supplies.
Up to four modules can be installed in a
single 1RU shelf. J2014003 and J2014004
shelves provide 1RU rack density up to
14kW with AC connectivity provided
by high reliability Molex connectors. Up
to four modules can be installed in a
single 1RU shelf. The shelves support
3kW and 3.5kW power supplies.
