Schurter is pleased to announce the new series 5003 DC power entry module for 48V telecom and other DC-powered equipment. The new DC module features two different standard connector styles, AMP Universal MATE-N-LOK and Molex HCS-125. The connectors are encased with a single stage filter rated at 3, 6, 10 and 15 A at 125 VDC. The filters provide wide-band attenuation in frequencies ranging from 100 kHz to 30 MHz.

Demand for equipment with higher data processing and transmission speeds at the Consumer Premise pushes demand upstream to Internet Service Providers and eventually to the core Central Office services. This trend toward higher speed and functionality brings with it the challenge of effectively managing potentially harmful electro-magnetic interferences in equipment used throughout these communications systems. While filtered AC power entry modules have become a popular solution for filtering AC power lines, the concept of a DC filtered power entry module, specifically for Central Office telecom equipment, is new.

The package size of the DC power entry module is mechanically the same as Schurter's AC power entry module and, as with the Schurter AC version, the DC version has a metal flange for optimal shielding at the panel opening. It includes versions for front or rear mounting to the chassis. The version for rear mounting allows for pre-wiring of the module before installation and features a quick-mount style that requires only screws, without securing nuts.

The 5003 fulfills the requirements of UL 60950 and is UL and CSA recognized up to 15 A at 125 VDC. Applications include network routers, LAN switches, WAN switches and multiplexers, as well as other equipment using DC power supplies. Delivery is stock to six weeks.
