Clear-Com HX System Frames - Manual (Page 26)

5 Powering System Components
This chapter provides guidance for providing power to the following components of the
Eclipse HX system:
• Eclipse HX matrix frames (Eclipse HX-Omega, Eclipse HX-Median, Eclipse HX-
Delta and Eclipse HX-PiCo).
• Interface frame(s) (the IMF-3 and IMF-102), which host interface modules.
• User panels (either V-Series or I-Series panels).
Tip: For an overview of the entire installation process, see 3 Installation Overview.
5.1 Powering matrix frames
The 6RU Eclipse HX-Omega and Eclipse HX-Median and the 1RU Eclipse HX-PiCo are
powered by AC mains lines current. The AC mains current provides power to the internal DC
power supplies.
The 3RU Eclipse HX-Delta is powered by two external power supplies.
Each matrix is equipped with two power supplies that can be connected to separate
branches of AC mains, providing redundancy for both the power supplies and the power
sources.
Power failure event Fail-safe mechanism
One of the two AC power
sources fails / is removed The matrix frame continues to operate from the second AC
power source.
One of the two internal DC
power supplies fails An alarm failure condition is activated, alerting the system
administrator to the fact that the failed DC supply must either
be replaced or repaired.
The second DC supply continues to power the system.

Note:
This information is also applicable to the E-32, the immediate predecessor of the
Eclipse HX-PiCo.
