Westell Technologies to Launch High-Current Universal Power Distribution Panel

Pioneering Options for Protecting Next-Gen Network Equipment

Westell Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: WSTL), a leading provider of in-building wireless, intelligent site management, cell site optimization, and outside plant solutions announces the launch of its latest Power Distribution Unit, the DCP10x10 (DCP) High-Current Universal DC Panel. The DCP is designed to minimize voltage drops across cable runs in high current applications and provides several choices for protecting network equipment such as breakers or fuses. This product will be available for purchase in fall of 2015.

“Westell’s DCP High Current DC Breaker Panel offers some of the industry’s highest amperages available over an extended temperature range in a compact high-density package,” explains Rick Koca, Product Line Manager for Power Distribution, Westell. “With standard Westell panel features like wide operating voltage range (+/-24V and -48VDC) and cascading output lugs, this panel exceeds the most stringent requirements of today’s networks.”

With a dual 600 Amps bus, the DCP10x10 is a perfect fit for applications limited on space and provides several options for protecting network equipment, such as breakers or fuses (TPS, TLS and TPC). The product also suits well as a mini Battery Distribution Circuit Breaker Bay (BDCBB), Battery Distribution Fuse Bay (BDFB), or distributing power in equipment racks to devices with large amperage (up to 125A) requirements.

Westell will be on-hand to discuss the DCP and will showcase its fully integrated cabinet and intelligent enclosure solutions at OSP Expo 2015, September 2-3 at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, Colorado, Booth 633.
