Power supply is the key to the construction of outdoor base stations
at present, with the rapid development of China's communication industry, especially the application of 3G network and FTTx technology, major operators have set off a new round of network construction and optimization. Affected by the shortage of station site resources in urban areas, signal blind areas, insufficient rural coverage and other factors, the traditional mode of building stations in computer rooms is difficult to meet the requirements of operators, and the proportion of building outdoor base stations is increasing
outdoor base stations are a flexible, efficient and economical way to build stations. However, because outdoor stations are mostly deployed in outdoor environments such as roofs, mountains, roadsides, communities, villages, etc., they are greatly affected by weather conditions and climate, so they have high requirements for the reliability, stability and environmental adaptability of the power supply system. Especially in the current situation of tight power supply and frequent extreme weather, how to ensure the power supply safety of outdoor stations is undoubtedly a major challenge for operators to carry out network construction and optimization
outdoor environment: test the three performance of power supply
outdoor communication stations are mainly built in open environments such as villages and towns, rural areas, mountainous areas, suburban areas and urban outdoor areas, so as to eliminate the signal coverage blind areas in these areas, alleviate the pressure on the network or improve the service quality. The electrical environment in these areas is relatively complex, and even events such as power rationing and sudden power outages are common. In order to ensure the reliable and stable operation of the communication network, operators need to use special outdoor communication power supply or outdoor UPS (uninterruptible power supply). Due to the special application environment of outdoor power products, they are different from general indoor power products in quality and performance. At present, when choosing outdoor power products, operators should mainly evaluate from the following three aspects:
first, power supply reliability. Communication power supply products mainly provide stable, pure and uninterrupted power supply for communication network, protect communication network equipment from power pollution and damage, and ensure that key business systems can operate normally in case of sudden power failure, which requires high reliability and availability of equipment. Especially for outdoor power products, the electrical environment they face is more complex, and they have to face many problems, such as power outage, voltage spike, voltage surge, frequency drift, harmonic interference, voltage fluctuation and so on. Therefore, it is required that the quality of product components should be higher to ensure the service life of the product. At the same time, the electrical adaptability should be stronger, which can play a better role in stabilizing voltage, filtering and purifying current. In addition, the equipment itself should have certain self-protection and fault diagnosis capabilities, such as lightning protection, short-circuit protection, etc., in order to better provide power support for the communication network
secondly, protective performance. This is also the most basic difference between outdoor power supply products and general indoor power supply equipment. Since outdoor power supply equipment is usually placed outdoors exposed to the sun, wind and rain, it is vulnerable to high and low temperature environment, rain and humidity, dust, salt fog and other conditions, so the protection ability of the equipment is extremely high. China has the standard gb/classification of enclosure protection grade for the prevention of rain, moisture, dust and foreign matters for electronic equipment, and the standard Ka: salt spray test method for the prevention of salt spray. For outdoor power supply equipment, the enclosure protection grade required by the industry must reach IP55, and the enclosure protection grade of battery cabinet must reach IP44
again, energy conservation and environmental protection. Energy conservation and emission reduction is not only the national industrial policy, but also the enterprise development strategy of operators. To build a green communication network, the most basic requirement is to adopt infrastructure products with high efficiency, energy conservation, environmental protection and safety. When choosing outdoor power supply equipment, operators can consider energy conservation, land conservation, environmental protection and other aspects: energy conservation can reduce energy consumption and have a direct effect on reducing operating costs; Land saving can reduce the investment in site construction and reduce the land cost of enterprises; Environmental protection is particularly important. Outdoor power supply equipment has close contact with the environment, and even directly affects the living environment. It must meet the relevant national and industrial standards in terms of electromagnetic radiation, audio noise, material pollution and so on
Emerson Network energy outdoor power supply solution
in view of China's electrical environment, geographical differences between North and south, climatic conditions and other factors, Emerson Network energy has made remarkable achievements in outdoor power supply technology after years of technology research and application practice. The outdoor power supply solution launched by the company for users in the communication industry has always emphasized the characteristics of high reliability, high availability, high intelligence, energy conservation and environmental protection, so as to meet the requirements of telecom operators that should cover an area of about 200 mu.
