1.8 Rectifier Shelf
The Rectifier Shelf, shown in Figure 18, is a chassis/backplane device that contains rectifier
modules and a Low Voltage Disconnect (LVD) unit. The shelf interconnects the rectifier
modules and LVD unit, and provides an interface to external connectors.
Typically, the rectifier shelf contains two rectifier modules. The center panel on the shelf can be
removed to add a third rectifier, providing N+ redundancy as more equipment is added to the
RAN chassis.

1.8.1 Rectifier Module
The rectifier module converts 240 VAC prime power into -48 VDC for use within the RAN.
Each rectifier has four LEDs, shown in Figure 18 and described in Table 12. The rectifiers are
controlled by the LVD unit under command of the STF2 module.
4 D OUT SMA connectors Diversity Out. 6 diversity outputs (bands A-F); each output being
used connects on one RDC module, in either same RAN or extension
RAN if present. Connection is made using cable 1955000P081
5 FLT Red LED Fault. Lights when module has failed and during start-up until mod-
ule has initialized
6 PWR Green LED Power. Lights when module has power
