3.2.3
Redundancy and Alternate Powering Configurations
Note: The use of DC supplies of less than 55v will reduce the usable distance between
Canopy 150/300 PIDU and Canopy 150/300 Mb BH ODU see Figure 6 .
WARNING The maximum distance from the ODU to the connected network equipment is
100m when using 1000BaseT. Powering distances over 100m are only applicable when using
a 1000BaseSX (Fibre Optic) connection.
3.2.3.1 External DC Supply Only
For use where there is no AC mains supply.
DC
Supply
3.2.3.2 External DC Supply and AC Supply
To give redundancy through the use of mains and DC supply.
