Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise 3DB18862AA Converter Module

Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise 3DB18862AA is a dual DC/DC converter kit for the 9500 MPR MSS shelf, providing +24 V DC and -48 V DC outputs to power the chassis. The two converters are housed in a single chassis and occupy one MSS slot on the MSS-8 shelf, enabling compact, centralized power provisioning for the 9500 MPR platform. This part is described as containing two converters with chassis for the MSS-8 rack, and it is complemented by related variants such as 3DB18863AA (single converter with chassis) and 3DB18764AA (spare +24/−48 Vdc converter) for the same family. Compatible with the 9500 MPR system, the 3DB18862AA supports enterprise deployments that require stable DC power distribution to MSS-8 components, including line cards and processing modules, within data-center or campus networks relying on Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise equipment. In typical use, it serves as the power subsystem for the MSS-8 shelf, ensuring the necessary voltage rails are available to support the modular telecom and networking functionality of the 9500 MPR suite.
