I. Product Overview and System Configuration
1.1 Product Introduction
The ZTE ZXDU68 S601/T601 Series Integrated Power Supply is an intelligent unattended power system designed specifically for communication networks. It adopts a modular design, supports -48V DC output, and can be configured with up to 12 ZXD2400 (V4.0) 50A high-frequency switching rectifiers, achieving a total output current of 600A. The system features comprehensive monitoring capabilities and supports remote management, making it suitable for access networks, remote switching stations, mobile base stations, and other scenarios.
Key Features:
- High Efficiency and Energy Saving: The rectifiers use active power factor correction (PFC) technology, with an input power factor >0.99 and efficiency >90%.
- Intelligent Management: The centralized monitoring unit supports “Three Remotes” (remote measurement, remote signaling, remote control) functions, enabling real-time monitoring of voltage, current, temperature, and other parameters.
- Flexible Expansion: Supports N+1 redundancy backup, and the rectifiers support hot-swappable, plug-and-play functionality.
- Multiple Protections: Equipped with C-class, D-class, and DC lightning protection modules, and supports battery hierarchical load shedding protection.

II. Safety Operation Guidelines
2.1 Safety Warnings
- High Voltage Danger: Disconnect the power before operation and avoid working on live cables.
- Anti-Static Measures: Wear an anti-static wrist strap and ground it before contacting circuit boards.
- Tool Requirements: Use dedicated insulated tools and prohibit the use of non-standard tools.
2.2 Operation Precautions
- Installation Environment: The equipment should be placed in a dry, well-ventilated environment with a temperature range of -5℃~45℃.
- Wiring Specifications:
- AC input must comply with three-phase five-wire or single-phase three-wire systems.
- DC output must strictly distinguish polarity to avoid short circuits.
- Maintenance Requirements: Regularly check the status of lightning protectors (window color), the tightness of cable connections, and the cleanliness of the cooling air ducts.
III. System Structure and Working Principle
3.1 System Structure
The ZXDU68 system consists of four core units:
- AC Distribution Unit:
- Function: Mains access, lightning protection, and standby output distribution.
- Key Components: C-class lightning protector, D-class lightning protection box, AC input circuit breaker.
- Rectifier Group:
- Function: Converts AC to -48V DC, supports hot-swappable.
- Indicator Lights: Green “IN” indicates normal input, green “OUT” indicates normal output.
- DC Distribution Unit:
- Function: Distributes DC power to loads and batteries, supports primary/secondary load shedding protection.
- Key Components: Load fuses, battery fuses, DC lightning protection box.
- Monitoring Unit:
- Function: Data acquisition, parameter setting, and alarm management.
- Core Boards: PSU (Power Management), RSB (Rectifier Signal), SCB (Signal Conversion).
3.2 Working Principle
- AC Input: Mains power is distributed to rectifiers and standby outputs after lightning protection.
- Rectification Conversion: Rectifiers convert AC to DC and output it in parallel to the DC distribution.
- Battery Management: The monitoring unit automatically switches between float and equalization charging modes based on battery status, supporting temperature compensation.
- Load Protection: When the battery voltage falls below the set threshold, the system performs hierarchical load shedding (primary load shedding and secondary load shedding).
