Converters
Argus modular, hot swappable DC-DC converters are the ideal solution for
providing dual voltage capability in new systems – or upgrades to existing DC
plants for a variety of applications.

Modular 24V-48V and 48V-24V converters are available options for DC systems
to provide support for various applications and markets including wireless.
Whether intended to support legacy cellular equipment, or enhance a network
with GSM and UMTS overlays, Argus converters allow flexibility with powering
approaches, allowing users to maintain a single voltage battery system.

Argus CSM35 and CSM36 series converters are reliable and field proven options
for remote network powering. Using a high DC voltage to transmit power over
long distances using an existing twisted pair copper infra-structure, these
converters are a great solution for remote site powering where AC utility is not
available, or battery maintenance is cost prohibitive. CSM3x converters are
perfect for FTTx, FITL (Fiber In The Loop), xDSL, and many other applications.

Whether to allow dual voltage system support, or providing network powering 53

services, Argus converters provide a cost effective and reliable option for DC
power systems.

Inex Inverter System
Argus offers the latest technology in inverters to the telecommunications
market. The INEX inverter is a fully integrated inverter system specifically
designed for backup of critical AC loads.

INEX systems provide reliability and flexibility through pure sine wave AC
power output and an N+1 redundancy design, and offer protection of
connected equipment during power failures with an optional static transfer
switch that transfers power automatically in less than a quarter of a cycle.

A friendly interface displays real time information, making the management of


settings quick and easy. The INEX monitoring software supports stand-alone or
networked computers making the inverter series a leader in the industry as the
most versatile modular system for critical telecommunications backup power.

> Expandable capacity up to 24KVA with N+1 redundancy configuration


> “All master” dynamic mechanism eliminates single point failure to optimize reliability
> Hot swappable operation allows module addition or removal without powering down
> High power density and high efficiency

The INEX inverter series is an integrated telecommunications power system, including inverter, static switch, LCD
display controller, and interface modules. With a versatile “building block” design and N+1 redundant configuration,
the INEX inverter system facilitates complex telecommunications and industrial power demands, and provides ultimate
flexibility for your current and future power requirements.

N+1 parallel redundancy allows power capacity expandable up to 24KVA. INEX “all master” dynamic mechanism
automatically shares and re-organizes critical loads to prevent interruption should any inverter module fail. The
DSP-microprocessing controller gives real-time system status through a comprehensive LCD display, and allows
programmable settings through the display panel. With a communication interface module installed, you can further
control and monitor the system remotely.

Inverter Module
The INEX inverter module provides pure sine wave AC power output for critical telecommunications equipment. Adopting N+1 redundancy design, the INEX
inverter can operate up to 24 units in parallel. The INEX inverter module is specially designed with compact size of maximized power density and can reach
up to 5.57W/inch3 for INEX 1000 and 8.36W/inch3 for INEX1500. A 1U height design allows the module to be installed onto a standard ETSI 300mm Rack.
The INEX module is a revolutionary telecom power solution in terms of maximum flexibility and reliability.

STS Module
The INEX STS (Static Transfer Switch) module increases system reliability by automatic power transfer between the inverter output and the AC mains. By
setting up the priority of operation mode, users can change the system status of “on line mode” or “off line mode”. The on line mode will keep the input power
provided by the inverter line and when the inverter fails, the line will switch to AC utility line. In off line mode, the system power is always connected to the AC
utility line and will switch to inverter power line when AC utility fails. The transfer time is less than a quarter cycle which prevents power interruption. The
reliable performance of the INEX STS module provides maximum protection to connected telecommunications equipment against possible damage caused
by system power failure.

Controller Module
The INEX controller module allows users to monitor the system status in real time. Its superior design enables users to manage the inverter and STS module
‘status’ including voltage, current, frequency, capacity and temperature. With a user-friendly interface design, users can easily manage the inverter and STS
module ‘settings’ including voltage, frequency, redundancy (for inverter module), and priority (STS module). The controller module can also record the alarm
history which can help to understand the operating status while maintaining the system or making further adjustments to improve system performance.

Fiber Power Systems
Fiber to the home is emerging as the 21st Century infrastructure for the
information economy. According to the latest Render Report, the number of
US homes receiving video, Internet or voice service over direct fiber optic
connections redoubled over the past 12 months, after doubling the year before
in 2006. This number is expected to double again by the spring of 2008.

The Alpha Group offers a complete portfolio of fiber to the home powering
options with the FlexPoint line of 12VDC single-family solutions (SFU), the
FlexNet line of 48VDC multiple dwelling (MDU), and the small office home
office (SOHO) power supplies. All of Alpha’s powering solutions are engineered
to perform reliably in the most demanding environmental conditions while
optimizing battery life and performance.
