How to connect the negative 48 volt power supply of the base station

4 FAQs about [How to connect the negative 48 volt power supply of the base station]

Why is a -48v battery grounded?

In telecom the positive terminal of the battery or power supply is grounded. That makes everything powered by the -48V negative or 0 at most relative to ground, which is superior in preventing the more damaging electrochemical reactions should the circuits get wet and current leaks to ground. +1 for mentioning this, thank you!

How do I connect negative voltage to earth ground?

If you want to connect negative voltage with earth ground, then all you have to do is tie the earth ground terminal of the DC power supply and the positive terminal common. This makes the positive terminal grounded to earth. And the negative terminal then connects to whichever part needed to supply negative voltage. It''s relatively simple.

How does a 48 volt battery work?

The telecom industry uses the positive terminal of a 48-volt battery as the reference (0 volts) making the other terminal -48V. These voltages are relative to the 0 volt rail which happens to be connected to ground. If the black wire of a voltmeter is connected to -12 rail with the red wire connected to ground.

Does a DC PSU have a negative voltage requirement?

Don’t worry about the “negative” portion of the voltage requirement for now. It will suffice to say that the telecom standard in the US is -48vdc and virtually all networking equipment with available DC PSUs conforms to this expectation.
