DC-Input Power Entry Module

The Cisco AS5850 is equipped with two power-entry modules (PEMFs), which accept DC-input power either from your site DC source or from an optional AC-input power shelf, and distribute –48 VDC to –60 VDC power to the chassis components using the backplane. The PEMFs provide power redundancy and load-sharing; however, a single PEMF can power a fully configured system. The PEMF also contains a passive DC power filter, which includes a broadband electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter and circuitry for monitoring power coming into the chassis.

Note Whenever possible, you should connect each PEMF to a separate DC power source.

The PEMFs are cooled by system airflow, which flows from the top to the back of the chassis. The front and sides of the PEMFs are perforated for minimum airflow restriction.

The PEMFs support the following functions:

Power redundancy and load sharing

The DC-input power supply provides redundant power by design. During normal operation, the two PEMFs provide system power simultaneously (load share). When you remove one PEMF, the remaining PEMF immediately ramps up to provide full power and maintain uninterrupted system power.

System environmental monitoring

A 24-pin connector monitors system environmental status and communicates this status from each PEMF using the maintenance bus (Mbus). Table 1-11lists connector pins supporting system status signals.
