Overview
The CPS3200U is the premier upstream dc/dc converter for line powering FTTN networks. The 3200U contains 16 dc/dc
converter/limiter cards in a dense 2 RU shelf. Each card contains a pair of independent -48 Vdc input to ±190 Vdc
output converters with each output safety limited to 100VA. In addition, each output terminal is safety Ground Fault
protected. The cards are fully connectorized and insulator shielded, inrush current protected and completely hot
swappable, making card addition to in-service shelves in the field an easy, one step process. The converter card shelf is
completely front access, with all -48V input and RJ21 output connections made on connectors in front of the mid-
mount shelf brackets. The alarm and communications connections are also on the front of the shelf.

Summary
The CPS3200U Upstream System delivers power over telephone lines. The primary application is enabling the delivery of
video bandwidth data rates to residences over twisted pairs by allowing placement of powered electronics at an
acceptable distance from the residence.
48 Vdc Input, ±190 Vdc Output Converter/Limiter System distributes battery backed up power from existing -48V
battery backed up sites like Central Offices and Remote terminals to reliably power electronics near the home. It does
this by converting the -48V to a UL60950-21 safety approved + and – 190V current limited and ground fault protected
source. Each front access shelf provides 32 channels.
