1 Introduction
GPS 4848/100
Overview The Galaxy Power System (GPS) 4848/100 was developed to support
-48 volt telecommunications powering solutions in worldwide markets.
The GPS 4848/100 combines 200-ampere, fan-cooled, switchmode
rectifiers, microprocessor control technologies, battery and load
disconnect/reconnect options, and a comprehensive line of fuse and
circuit breaker dc distribution options in a modular front-access design.
This modularity ensures easy access, simplified installation and
maintenance, and allows the system to expand in capacity and features
as power needs grow.
With 10,000-ampere maximum capacity, distribution flexibility, and
universal ac input capability, the GPS 4848/100 supports switching,
transmission, and wireless applications in central office locations and
environmentally controlled remote sites (huts or vaults). For centralized
architecture, bus bars are available to 10,000A.
Notes The Galaxy SCF Controller is no longer available in the GPS 4848/100.
For information about systems with SCF controllers, see Issue 5 of this
manual.
GPS 4848/100 supports 595LT series rectifiers, one per shelf. See GPS
4848/100 with Dual Rectifier Shelf User's Guide for Specifications of
595LT series rectifiers.
This document includes 595 series rectifiers S1:3 and later. For
information about systems with 595 Series Rectifiers prior to S1:3, see
Issue 8 of this manual.
