The Rack Power Supply

The Patton NetLink rack system is designed to allow single or redundant (dual) power supplies. Using the same mid-plane architecture as the function/rear cards, the front function card and the power supply slide in from the front, while the rear card and power entry modules slide in from the rear. They plug into one another in the middle of the rack. The front card is then secured by thumb screws and the rear card by conventional metal screws..

	There are no user-serviceable parts in the power supply
	section of the Model 1001R14. Voltage setting changes
	and fuse replacement should only be performed by
WARNING	qualified service personnel. Contact Patton Electronics
	Technical support at (301) 975-1007 for more informa-
	tion.
