1 Introduction
GPS2436
Lineage Power developed the Galaxy Power System GPS2436 to support +24 volt
telecommunications powering solutions in worldwide markets. The GPS2436 combines
100-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 as power needs grow.
With 2000-ampere maximum capacity, distribution flexibility, and universal ac input
capability, the GPS2436 supports switching, transmission, and wireless applications in
central office locations and environmentally controlled remote sites (huts or vaults).
The main emphasis of this manual is to provide a general product description that will
