5G communication base station power supply solution

Detailed plan description

For operators' 5G macro base stations, indoor distributed base stations, and edge computer rooms, it provides integrated solutions for AC power distribution, switching power supply, battery backup, and dynamic environment monitoring. Adapted to the base station's requirements for high reliability, small space, and remote operation and maintenance, it supports seamless switching between mains power and backup power, and is equipped with a remote monitoring platform to achieve unmanned duty.

Adapted to Indonesia

Help operators, tower operators and edge equipment room owners solve the problems of "power outages at remote sites, high cost of manual inspections, invisible battery health, and insufficient space for expansion". The purchasing side does not just buy a power cabinet, but also obtains a combination solution of -48V communication power supply, battery, dynamic environment monitoring, remote alarm, spare parts and maintenance cycle, which is suitable for the operating environment of Indonesian islands with scattered, humid rainy season and large fluctuations in mains power supply.

Professional specifications and standards based

A typical base station power supply adopts 220/380V AC input, -48V DC output, and the rectifier module is N+1 redundant, with an efficiency of not less than 96%. LiFePO4 is preferred for backup power, configured with a backup time of 3-10 hours, and the cycle life is recommended to be 2000-4000 times or more. It is recommended that the outdoor cabinet be IP55 and C4 anti-corrosion, and the monitoring supports RS485/SNMP/4G backhaul. Please refer to IEC 62368, IEC 62040, IEC 61439, IEC 60529 and telecommunications site grounding specifications.

Original experience and test data

Scarce experience: The most common problem in remote base stations is not one-time damage to the equipment, but battery degradation that cannot be detected in advance.

Pitfalls and pain points that I have stepped on

• Most base stations are located in remote areas, where the mains power supply is unstable and frequent outages affect communication quality;
• The number of base stations is large and scattered, the cost of manual inspection and operation and maintenance is high, and fault detection lags behind;
• 5G equipment consumes high power, and the original power distribution capacity is insufficient, making transformation troublesome;
• The battery ages quickly, has no online monitoring, and cannot provide normal power backup during a power outage.

Core parameters

Input voltage 220V/380V, switching power supply efficiency ≥96%, battery backup time 3~10 hours, support remote monitoring, dynamic loop data collection accuracy ±1%.

Our special contribution

• High-frequency and high-efficiency switching power supply + lithium iron phosphate battery, reliable power backup, 2 times longer service life;
• The dynamic environment monitoring platform can remotely check voltage, current, and battery status, proactively alert on faults, and reduce operation and maintenance costs by 50%;
• Modular power distribution design makes it easy to expand and transform the original base station, and the construction period is short;
• Supports intelligent power backup for peak and valley electricity prices, reducing base station power costs.

Project income

• Economic benefits: Battery life is extended by 2 times, battery replacement costs are reduced by 50% on average annually; remote unattended, the number of base stations managed by a single operation and maintenance personnel is increased by 3 times, and operation and maintenance labor costs are reduced by 50%; intelligent peak and valley power backup, annual electricity bills for a single station are saved by 10% to 15%.
• Operational benefits: Active fault alarms reduce site outage duration by 60%, and the base station online rate increases to over 99.9%, ensuring communication service quality.
• Management benefits: Unified monitoring of dynamic and environmental data of all base stations, online assessment of battery health, and early replacement to avoid sudden station outages.
