This outdoor rectifier supports telecommunications infrastructure in mobile networks. It is ideal for use in network-edge applications.

Vertiv, a global provider of critical digital infrastructures and continuity solutions, introduced the new Vertiv™ NetSure™ IPE outdoor rectifier. It will facilitate 5G rollout and enable operators to increase capacity in areas with vast demand for data. These easy-to-deploy devices, available with lithium-ion battery backup, help to minimise power losses while feeding radios on top of towers and rooftops. The NetSure IPE R48-2000C2 is available now globally.

This outdoor rectifier supports telecommunications infrastructure in mobile networks. It is ideal for network edge applications, including 5G small cells, RAN, and distributed telecommunications networks.

It is also best to use in locations with high data demand, such as sports arenas, stadiums, public transport systems, airports, shopping and educational centres. High mobile data consumption in these areas can cause networks to suffer from capacity bottlenecks that are difficult to manage.

The next-generation technology of NetSure IPE R48-2000C2 outdoor rectifiers quickly and reliably powers the radios needed to increase capacity and expand 5G networks. If the grid fails, depending on load and battery capacity, lightweight and maintenance-free lithium-ion batteries keep the network running for an hour or longer and charge faster than lead-acid alternatives.

Henrik Nilen, global director of DC power offerings for Vertiv, said, “The increase of data traffic at cell sites and other high-demand applications at the network edge has accelerated the need for a reliable, compact and efficient outdoor power solution. Vertiv NetSure IPE provides an elegant DC power system that meets the challenges of these critical sites.”

Vertiv™ NetSure™ IPE features easy installation, multiple mounting positions, and small size and does not need to be configured before installation and launch. It can be powered through alternating or direct current, allowing the end user to use the connection type best suited to the site and network. The rectifier meets the IP65 rating for use in harsh outdoor environments. It can be equipped with dedicated lithium-ion battery backup for fast and easy deployment in public spaces.
