Abstract
The distributed power architecture for the System 75 Digital Communications System offers performance that would be difficult to achieve with conventional power architectures. With distributed power, each circuit-card shelf is powered by its own off-line switcher (OLS) power units. This limits the effects of a power-unit failure and contributes to increased system reliability. An optional battery reserve system ensures uninterrupted power without an external uninterruptible power system. The result is that System 75 is a low-cost, easy-to-repair digital communications system.
