Cable networks

As cable companies compete with telecom operators in voice and data services, service reliability and quality are paramount. They need reliable, low-maintenance back-up power for equipment including Remote Subscriber Units (RSUs), Optical Node Units (ONUs) and Hybrid Fiber­–Coaxial (HFC) networks.

In order to increase the reliability of their network while reducing the operating cost (OPEX) in the same time, Saft offer back-up energy solution with high reliability, temperature tolerant, long life and low maintenance:

• Saft's NCX and Ultima.plus nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) batteries provide highly reliable back-up power with very low maintenance requirements and high durability – leading to lower operating costs.
• Tel.X Ni-Cd batteries offer a compact and maintenance free solution, ensure a maximum reliability and minimum total cost of ownership (TCO).
• In some situations, equipment is installed in compact cabinets, where space for the battery is limited to a few 19-inch rack units (‘U’). Here, Saft’s Intensium 3 (3U height) or Intensium 1 (1U height) lithium-ion batteries provide reliable and lightweight back-up power without compromising lifetime.
• Saft 48 V – 10 Ah 19“ rack mounted Ni-MH battery system for VRLA replacement in hot environment.
