Sat-Light/Platinum Chassis Kit | PL7010
The PL7010 Sat-Light Platinum Chassis Kit is a 3RU 19-inch rack-mounted sub-rack chassis designed to house up to twelve RF over Fiber plug-in cards with dedicated control and power module slots. It provides a centralized hardware platform for Sat-Light Platinum Series deployments that require modular expansion, redundant power architecture, and system-level monitoring. The chassis supports structured integration of RF, optical, alarm, and control interfaces within a single rack-mounted platform.
Features & Benefits
- 3RU 19-inch rack-mounted chassis platform
- Supports up to twelve hot-swappable plug-in cards
- SNMP-based system monitoring and control support
- Integrated support for legacy alarm interfaces
- Compatible with PL700 MCP control module
- Dual redundant power supply architecture
- Wide input range 100–240 VAC operation
- Embedded microprocessor-based power management
- Active current sharing between power supplies
- Supports system-level alarm and monitoring interfaces
The PL7010 provides the physical and electrical backbone for Sat-Light Platinum Series systems where multiple plug-in modules need to be installed, powered, monitored, and maintained from one rack-based chassis. Its layout supports up to twelve active or passive cards, with separate positions for the PL700 Main Control Processor and two PL7011 power supplies, giving system designers a structured platform for scalable RF over Fiber infrastructure.
Dual power supply support with active current sharing strengthens power redundancy, while hot-swappable modules reduce maintenance disruption during field service. The chassis also supports modern SNMP monitoring alongside legacy alarm interfaces, making it suitable for all Sat-Light Platinum deployments and facilities.
What is the PL7010 chassis used for?
It is used as the main housing platform for RF over Fiber systems, supporting plug-in RF modules, control processors, and power supply units.
Why is the PL7010 useful for system upgrades?
The chassis supports modern SNMP-based monitoring while retaining legacy dry contact and open collector alarm interfaces. This makes it suitable for facilities moving from older RF infrastructure into a Sat-Light Platinum architecture without losing established alarm and monitoring practices.
What makes the dual power supply design important?
The PL7011 power supplies support redundant operation and active current sharing. This reduces dependency on a single power source and strengthens continuity planning for high-availability RF and optical systems.
What type of monitoring is available?
The system supports SNMP-based monitoring along with legacy alarm interfaces for system-level diagnostics.
Can modules be replaced during operation?
Yes, both plug-in cards and power supplies are hot-swappable, that enables maintenance without system downtime.
