What does SDR vs DRP mean for the meanwells?

That looks to meet alot of our need, though the 48 volt

SAF recommended Eltek minipack system, i havent priced that

This is what most of our sites have (theres some depreciating ubnt sectors too)
4x EPMP access point/Paketflux injector/Meanwell DR-120-48
4x AP320/Packetflux injector/Meanwell DR-120-24
Sitemonitor/cambium wallwort
1-2 backhauls (unlic: epmp, ptp500, UBNT rocket) (lic: SAF or Mimosa)
RB1100AHX2 (AC power)
HP 1810 24g switch (AC power)

APC 750xl or 1000xl w/management card




This is probably one of our more heavily populated sites

4x ap320/packetflux/meanwell 48v
4x fsk/packetflux/meanwell 24v
4x EPMP/packetflux/ meanwell 48v
2x UBNT Nanobridge private APs/ubnt PS
2x SAF Lumina/ SAF PS (will be 1x lumina and 2x Integra soon)
3x UBNT rocket M5/UBNT PS
1x EPMP force 200/EPMP PS
1x PTP 650/Cambium PS
1x sitemonitor/cambium 29v PS
1x RB1100AHX2/AC power
1x HP 1810g 24/AC power

APC 1500XL + 2 External packs and management card


the AC fans run on the utility side because I dont have the battery budget


Cabling is a shitshow with all the AC powercords and branded power supplies too.

I assume the APC UPS runtime is wasted with all the power supplies.

Scalability is a factor as well, so far we havent justified 450m but may soon and we will roll some LTE in the near term which will add substantial demand

    Here is what we are doing, I think this is close to what Steve is
    asking for:____

    __ __

    Meanwell SDR-240-24 AC to DC power source:  $84____

    Meanwell DR-UPS40 Battery Float/UPS:  $37____

    Tycon TPDIN MonitorWeb2:  $131____

    24 V of battery backup $70-120 depending on the runtime looking for____

    Netonix 150 W or 250 DC switch:   $250-350  (This is really the only
    expensive component)____

    Heater:   $65____

    Fan:  $14____

    __ __

    With this, we can run 5-8 hours on very small batteries, we figure
    we have several hours to get a generator to the site if power isn’t
    coming back.   We run all POE from the Netonix, it works really
    well.   Here are the other things we can do with the box:____

     1. Monitor temp in the cabinet____
     2. Monitor/alert on loss of AC line power through TP DIN____
     3. Monitor voltage of the batteries____
     4. Monitor voltage to the Netonix____
     5. Monitor Current to the Netonix____
     6. Monitor Current in/out of the batteries____
     7. Auto start the heater below 40 degrees____
     8. Auto start the fan above 80 degrees____
     9. Power cycle the netonix from the TP DIN____
    10. Power cycle any AP, Router, Backhaul from the Netonix____

    __ __

    We also put a Mikrotik router in this cabinet.   Usually a Hex POE
    (for small sites) or a 3011 for larger sites.____

    __ __

    We have 13 in the field set up like this and are going 15 more right
    now.   While it might be a little more than what you were thinking,
    it gives us a ton of control for pretty minimal investment per site.

    Best part is, no coding necessary.  Doing all this with the Monitor
    Web2 settings and/or SNMP.    Let me know if you are interested in
    pictures.   For this second batch we have started using Terminal
    blocks to clean up the wiring, the cabinets look a little better,
    but we went to a smaller poly cabinet that makes things a little
    tight.____

    You can still do DC-DC off it and then hook up netonix.  If I had to
    do it now I'd go with the IDC switch.  When we did our design, the
    idc didn't exist so we just went down to 24V off of our A  and B
    sides and run a redundant powered 24V bus which all the netonix
    switches run on.____

    I better buy up another batch of Elteks before all y'all buy them
    all up. These are mostly decommissioned Sprint/Clearwire btw.____

            Which Netonix are you running at - 48V?  Or are you using an
            isolated DC/DC converter in between the -48V rectifier and
            Netonix?____
