B3.0 APPLICATIONS
Magnum 508-48VDC and 528-48VDC Switching Hubs are easily installed in a variety of applications where 48 VDC power is used as the primary power source. The 48VDC power configuration provides an Ethernet networking solution utilizing a special power supply in hubs with a proven track record. The solution is particularly useful in the telecommunication industry, where it is common for equipment to operate on -48 VDC power. Such companies include regular and wireless telephone service providers, Internet service providers (ISPs) and other communications companies , as well as high- availability equipment serving broadcasters, publishers, and some financial institutions. In addition, many large newspaper operations, brokerage firms and other facilities often use a battery backup system to maintain operations in the event of a power failure, and even long term outages. The 508/528-48VDC is ideal for utility use in this type of battery-powered plant. It is frequently used to provide an Ethernet LAN connection for computer system back up, management computers and operations monitoring equipment.
