Alcatel PW3N-OVGA1KN

The Alcatel PW3N-OVGA1KN stands out as a dedicated DC power input module engineered specifically for the Alcatel-Lucent 7360 ISAM FX series, including the FX-4, FX-8, and FX-16 chassis. Unlike generic power supplies, this module is purpose-built to deliver reliable -48 VDC power with integrated monitoring and alarm functions, ensuring uninterrupted operation in demanding GPON and XGS-PON FTTH central office environments. Its dual DC inputs support A and B feeds for 1+1 redundancy, and hot-swappable design allows replacement without powering down the chassis.

Highlights

• Dual DC inputs (-48 VDC to -60 VDC) for redundant power feeds
• Hot-swappable module for seamless maintenance
• Integrated power monitoring and alarm functions
• LED indicators for Power OK and Alarm status
• Compatible with Alcatel-Lucent 7360 ISAM FX-4, FX-8, and FX-16 chassis
• Wide operating temperature range from -5°C to +45°C
• Compliant with CE and RoHS standards

In daily use

In a central office, the PW3N-OVGA1KN ensures continuous power to the 7360 ISAM FX chassis. The module accepts two independent DC feeds, typically from separate power sources, to provide 1+1 redundancy. If one feed fails, the other seamlessly takes over, preventing service interruptions. The front-panel LEDs give immediate visual indication of power status and any alarm conditions, simplifying troubleshooting. Because it is hot-swappable, a faulty module can be replaced without affecting the operation of the chassis, minimizing downtime and maintaining high availability for subscriber services.
