INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL
SBP-C03
1 RU HIGH 3 UNIT CARD CAGE WITH POWER SUPPLY
The SBP-C03 is a 1 RU (1.75”) high 19-inch rack-mountable card cage unit capable
SBP-C03
of mounting up to three 1.0-inch modules.
The SBP-C03 is provided with one external 120-240 VAC power supply with a 12VDC
at 3A output, and includes reverse polarity protection. Two separate isolated DC
inputs are provided for mission critical/high reliability applications where power
supply redundancy is required. PoE (Power over Ethernet) modules may also be
used, by replacing the power supply with a +48VDC unit, and connecting the
supply output to the DC power input of each PoE module. See Module Instructions
for wiring instructions.
Any module may be hot-swapped without any impact to the operation of the other
modules within the card cage.
Ideally suited to those applications where rack space may be limited, the SBP-C03
may be used in desktop installations by the addition of user-installed rubber feet on
the bottom of the cage. It may also be installed as a rack by use of the two included
rack-mount adapter brackets. See Page 2 for installation instructions.

Redundant Power Supply Connectors are located on the rear panel of the SBP-C03 Rack. Each input should be supplied with
12 VDC, minimum 2 Amps.
The lower pin on connector A and connector B is connected to the positive lead from the power supply. The upper pin is
connected to ground.
Most power supplies feature a legend that denotes the polarity of the supply wires. Please confirm each wire’s polarity through
that legend before connecting to SBP-C03 rack.
INCLUDED PSU ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Input Voltage: 90-264 VAC @ 70 W Maximum
Output Voltage: 12 VDC @ 3.0 Amps @ 75˚C
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
This product is supplied as a standalone or rack mountable unit.
Units should be installed in dry locations protected from extremes of
temperature and humidity.
CAUTION: Before installing, be sure that the power supply is turned off
and that the rack power supply is disconnected from any power source.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS:
A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may
be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to
installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum
ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such
that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not
compromised.
