ABB Expands Offerings to Provide Reliable, Quality Power for Global Telecommunications Infrastructure


News Image

With voltage levels varying by region, a one-size-fits-all approach to power conversion topologies cannot effectively meet the capacity demands of telecom applications responsible for keeping our world connected.

Building on its proven GP100 rectifier platform, ABB Power Conversion has developed a new lower-voltage, true three-phase, 6-kilowatt (kW) version to provide the power levels needed in telecommunication and networking applications. The low-line rectifiers provide the foundation for a variety of lower-voltage power systems to be developed by ABB, starting with its low-line GPS4830.

Both the low-line GP100 and GPS4830 help power designers and engineers demands for high-density data and communication solutions where high-line 380-480V feeds may not be available – and in regions, such as Japan, where lower-voltage (200-, 208- and 240-volt) AC utility power is prominent.

“With voltage levels varying by region, a one-size-fits-all approach to power conversion topologies cannot effectively meet the capacity demands of telecom applications responsible for keeping our world connected,” explained Vito Savino, wireline and data center segment leader at ABB Power Conversion. “By expanding our line of GPS4830 power systems to now support lower-voltage environments, we can meet the needs and requirements of our global customers while helping to provide the reliable, quality power they require.”

The GP100L3R48TEZ rectifiers deliver the same amount of power as competitive AC-DC power supplies but in half the rack space – significantly improving power density. This high power density, combined with the rectifiers’ compact design and high efficiency operation, helps it meet the evolving needs of customers and original equipment manufacturers within the telecom, cable, and data center segments. For example, the rectifiers provide the 48V DC output voltages required for many of today’s distributed power architectures, telecom switches, LAN/WAN/MAN applications, file servers, and enterprise networks.

When used in ABB’s GPS4830 power systems, the efficiency levels achieved with the low-line GP100 rectifiers combine with the proven cabinet design and distribution of the GPS4848 to provide a robust solution for telecommunications applications. A fully equipped low-line GPS4830 bay can achieve 144 kW of capacity with 12 rectifier shelves incorporated while still allowing 44 inches of vertical space for the installation of distribution panels.

“The addition of the low-line GP100 to our product portfolio enables us to provide a complete range of GPS4830 power systems to meet our customers’ needs regardless of the utility voltage available near their facility,” Savino continued. “And with both high-line and low-line variations now available, we can provide a one-stop-shop for our customers to meet their global telecom power needs.”

Additional Features

The low-line GP100 rectifiers also feature:


  • 200/208/240 VAC input.
  • 42-58 VDC output.
  • Up to 96.5% efficiency.
  • Three means for monitoring/control: Analog, PMBus™, or Galaxy-based RS485 protocol.
  • Comprehensive input, output, and over-temperature protection.
  • Redundant, parallel operation with active load sharing and redundant +5V auxiliary power.
  • Power factor correction that meets both EN/IEC 61000-3-2 and EN 60555-2 requirements.
  • Conformally coated design.

Waterfall vs. Agile Software Development


The CHAOS report’s perspective indicates that Waterfall methodologies projects have a 57% “challenge” resolution rate when compared to Agile’s 49%. The “challenged” resolution indicates that the project is neither a success nor a failure, making this a good marker of the influence of these methodologies on the projects they are used on.

DesignRush, a B2B marketplace connecting brands with agencies, leveraged its 10,000-agencies-strong network for quick insights – or “QuickSights” – to gather experts’ opinions on the benefits of both Waterfall and Agile development methodologies, to help businesses optimize project efficiency and outcomes.

1) WATERFALL RECOMMENDED FOR CLEARLY DEFINED PROJECTS

According to Alex Levchenko, the company spokesperson for UppLabs, using both options can put you on the same page of any client’s needs.

“We use both methodologies for our projects, as we can easily adapt to the client and the needs of the development solution,” said Levchenko. “Waterfall usually presumes a conducting of a good plan and adhering to it, while Agile’s approach is more flexible and iterative.”

2) THANKS TO ITS FLEXIBILITY, AGILE RECOMMENDED FOR PROJECTS OF ALL SIZES

Dasha Korsik, company spokesperson for NEKLO, states that Agile is flexible and scalable which is particularly convenient for bigger projects that tend to have many moving and changing parts.

“The most valued benefit of the Agile methodology is that it offers a lot of transparency and flexibility,” says Korsik. “Your involvement as a client can be quite big, which makes the whole project adaptable to altering requirements, resources, and conditions.”

3) AGILE KNOWN FOR FASTER DELIVERY AND CLEANER CODE

As per Konstantin Klyagin, CEO and founder of Redwerk, thanks to its iterative nature and frequent check-ins, Agile tends to result in faster project deliveries with fewer bugs.

“Agile allowed us to establish a foolproof software development lifecycle (SDLC) that guarantees speedy delivery, great code hygiene, and transparency in communication,” says Klyagin. “No methodology will drive the needed results unless viewed through client needs and their feedback. All in all, adapting and leveraging well-performing workflows brings more value than a blind pursuit of trends.”

To help businesses find developers that can develop their projects with both Waterfall and Agile methodologies, DesignRush released the October list of the top custom software development companies:

1. Inexture Solutions – inexture.com

2. UppLabs – upplabs.com

3. Calibrated – calibrated.io

4. Rocketech Development – rocketech.it

Highlighted in the October 2021 print issue of Fast Company, the 10th anniversary of the Innovation by Design awards recognizes people, teams, and companies that transform businesses, organizations and society through design. One of the most sought-after design awards in the industry, Innovation by Design is the only competition to honor creative work at the intersection of design, business, and innovation, recognizing the people, companies, and trends that have steadily advanced design to the forefront of the business conversation.

“We are excited to be included in Fast Company’s 2021 Innovation by Design Awards and to be recognized as an innovative company focused on solving the problems of today and tomorrow,” said Biospectal CEO and co-founder, Eliott Jones. “People need an easy to use, digital means to accurately – and regularly – measure, monitor, track and share their blood pressure data with their physician. Biospectal OptiBP™’s innovative technology and user-friendly app format design helps democratize access to healthcare worldwide, and makes monitoring blood pressure simple and accessible for anyone with a smartphone.”
