    Section 150-231-164 Revision 04 3.08 The HLU-231 List 6D contains two separate power converters. The main power supply converts -48 VDC local battery to logic power for the HLU-231 List 6D circuits. The line power supply converts the -48 VDC battery to a variable -130 VDC to - 210 VDC that provides simplex power feed on the two HDSL line interfaces.
