Description
The FND850-12RG DC-DC front-end provides a 12 VDC output for telecom, datacom, and other distributed
power applications. The FND850-12RG small 1U by 2U size allows for configurations of either height in hot-
swap redundant systems while its internal fan and cooling design permits wide use with reliable operation.
Status is provided with front panel LEDs, logic signals, and via the I 2 C management interface bus. In addition,
the I 2 C bus can enable the power supply, control fan speed, and adjust the output voltage from 7 to 12 VDC.
This powerful feature allows the same power supply to be used in various applications.
In addition, the FND850-12RG is designed with airflow from the rear of the power supply to the front. This
airflow direction supports those critical applications where space limitations and/or higher ambient temperatures
near the rear of the racking system, prohibit the discharge of higher temperature airflow from regular front-to-rear
cooled power supplies.
The FND850-12RG meets international safety requirements and is CE marked to the Low Voltage Directive
(LVD).
