Power Sources for Long Economic Life Communications Equipment

摘要

Because of the extended life and operating endurance of new electronic communications equipment, new power sources must be designed and developed which provide 'no-break' operation and optimum costs over these extended operating periods. The concept of a rack-mounted power source as a utility tray component of an integrated shelter is described. Maintainability and life cycle costs are developed for silent static power generation systems in contrast to present engine-generator units. (Author)
