to step up from 24 to 48V. You have to understand how much current you need. I have changed from 24V supplies to 48V supplies a couple of years ago since the 24V load was a lot less than the 48V one. (Now if the world would standardize on +48 or -48.) DC-DC converters work very well if you keep them inside there power envelope. > > > On Sun, Apr 7, 2013 at 4:41 PM, Jon Auer <j...@tapodi.net> wrote: > >> That has been true, but it seems like the cell world has been moving to >> 48V lately. >> Examples: >> Alvarion carrier WiMax (2.5Ghz), macro and micro uses 48V (maybe you can >> get it in 24V, the stuff I've seen has all been 48V) >> With packet optical, if you put a Cyan box in that uses 24V you >> need separate linecard spares as they aren't compatible with the 48V stuff >> in core. >> More microwave backhauls are at 48V.
