What is a 5G power supply?

The equipment ensures that devices across the infrastructure stack receive reliable power from the mains network, wherever they happen to reside. With it, individuals and organizations can continue to render services to both themselves and their customers. Overviews The 5G network architecture uses multiple types of power supplies.

How will 5G affect power supply design?

Higher bandwidths and compression techniques will let 5G networks shuttle more data through systems in a given period, leaving more power-saving idle time. In light of this, the move to 5G infrastructure is necessitating new power supply design considerations.

What is a 5G backhaul power supply?

The backhaul part of the 5G network connects the access interface - including masts, eNodeB, and cell site gateway - to the mobile core and internet beyond. And just like the access equipment, it too has specific power supply requirements. Backhaul power supplies must cater to aggregation routers and core routers.

Does FSP offer a 5G power supply?

FSP’s power supply products meet the quality demands of agents in the telecoms industry. We continue this discussion of 5G power supply design considerations in part II. In this next part, we will cover power supply considerations for the core of the 5G network, plus for internet- and cloud-connected devices (such as servers).

What is the access side of the 5G stack?

The access side of the 5G stack includes user equipment such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and desktop devices. Devices in this part of the stack require power supply equipment that can operate at room temperatures indoors and protect sensitive electronics - already a well-developed area.

Do 5G networks need dustproof power supplies?

Some 5G network applications require dustproof power supplies because masts, cells, and other controllers can’t always go inside buildings. In fact, designers may actively try to avoid this, given the fact that 5G signals can struggle to penetrate walls.
