IT-ISS PowerSmart

IT-ISS PowerSmart

The PowerSmart 2480 has been designed to provide 24 / 48 VDC or 110 / 220 VAC power to external amplifers / BUCs, and includes features to support Monitor and Control (M&C) functions for several products.  Most DC / AC powered BUCs, SSPAs and TWTAs can be integrated with the PowerSmart 2480, for an efcient and convenient hardware solution to provide POWER plus M&C control to an outdoor transmitter unit. 

Intellisystem Technologies thanks to its strong partnership with C-Com Satellite Systems Inc. is not only their official systems distributors but also a system integrators with added value support and OEM enginering able to work on custom customer’s Industrial and Research & Development projects.

The iNetVu® PowerSmart 2480 is ideal for applications where a VSAT transmitter / amplifer requires more power than a satellite modem can provide over the TX output. This is typical for larger Block Up Converters (BUC) or Power Amplifers (SSPA, TWTA etc.) that supply over 8 Watts RF output power.

Description

The Intellisystem Technologies Integrated Satellite Solutions (IT-ISS) provides two-way broadband satellite connectivity for non-terrestrial WAN Backup, IP multicast, and broadband internet access.

 • 19 inch 1U rack mount unit

• Amplifer functions such as TX Enable / Disable and operational  status can be monitored and controlled from a convenient operator control panel. (1)

• The amplifer manufacturer’s software can typically be operated from a PC platform through the confgurable port, over RS232, RS485 or SNMP interface as required.

• Enabling the Transmit function, monitoring BUC faults and the  presence of 10 MHz reference on the IFL, verifying output power level and other common functions along with the rack mount format make the PowerSmart 2480 a value-added solution to higher-powered VSAT applications.

• Confguration parameters, onboard statistics and fault  information can be accessed via the amplifer’s control interface   (if available) through a convenient data port on the panel.

• Optional support for Bias-T, DC Blocker, MUX-T with 10 MHz clock,  all in one convenient rack mount enclosure.

• Standard 2-Year Warranty

Note:

(1) Listed features are BUC dependent. Some front panel features related to M&C control may  not be supported by some BUC manufacturers.  Please inquire for further clarifications.
