IPUPS-3-30-ALUL Buffer kit for up to 3 IP cameras + 2 SFP ports

IPUPS-3-30-ALUL is a PoE kit, with buffered power supply, for up to 3 IP cameras (3x 802.3af/at PoE ports and 1x input port) featuring 2 SFP ports. The enclosure provides space for an 18 Ah battery.

The kit is designed for fiber-optic installations; two SFP ports provide simultaneous fiber optic input and output. IPUPS-3-30-ALUL supports operation in a ring topology.

IPUPS-3-30-ALUL is a ready-to-use distribution unit designed to power IP cameras in large-scale fiber-optic installations, with local battery backup.

IPUPS buffer kits are designed to provide battery backup for IP PoE devices. When connected to suitable batteries, they maintain power during mains power failures. This ensures the continuous operation of connected devices, enhancing the safety and reliability of the installation.

IPUPS-3-30-ALUL can accommodate a 12 V / 18 Ah battery.

The kit includes:

• xFIBER-6-30-OF – 4-port PoE switch with two SFP ports
• AUPS-100-120-OF – buffered power supply with a maximum output of 100 W
• ASUC-100-550-OF – 55 V, 100 W DC/DC converter
• ABOX-ALUL – outdoor enclosure with IP66 protection rating, cable glands: 10xM16, 1xM20

The built-in PoE switch supports RING mode. By default, the device is set to "slave" mode. For the ring topology to function properly (prevent network loops) one module must be configured as "master" to manage data transmission through the SFP ports.

To change the operating mode of the xFIBER-6-30-OF, press and hold the "SET" button for approximately 3 seconds until the adjacent LED starts blinking. Then, switch modes with a single press and confirm the selection by pressing and holding the button again for 3 seconds. In "master" mode, the SET LED should light up blue.

xFIBER-6-30-OF features a technical output (open collector) that indicates:

• LOOP – a network loop on the RJ45 ports
• RING_F – proper ring topology operation (indicated only by the device operating in "master" mode)

The RING_F output indicates the status of the RING topology. A high output level indicates that the ring topology is operating normally, while a low output level indicates that the RING has been interrupted.

This technical output can be connected to an alarm control panel or any controller supporting open-collector outputs.

The operating status of all devices in the kit is indicated by LED indicators:

AUPS-100-120-OF buffer power supply also features a technical output (open-collector):

• ACF – indicates the presence of mains voltage (low state – no AC)
• OUF – indicates the presence of output voltage (low state – no output voltage)
• GND – ground

The technical output allows the operating status of the power supply to be monitored. When the ACF and OUF outputs are both at a high level, the power supply is operating from the 230 VAC mains supply. When the ACF output is at a low level and the OUF output remains at a high level, the power supply is operating from the battery. These output states make it possible to determine the operating mode of the entire kit.

Key features and functions:

• buffer power supply for 3 IP PoE 802.3af/at devices
• space for an 18 Ah battery
• two SFP ports
• RING mode support
• up to 100 W total output power
• high power supply efficiency (90% @100 W)
• quick and easy operating mode configuration using the SET button
• technical output indicating a network loop on the RJ45 ports and the RING status
• clear LED status indication
• technical output indicating the power supply operating status
• modules can be mounted in any perforated section of the mounting plate (hole pattern system)
• possibility of storing excess cables inside the enclosure
• lockable enclosure door
• IP66-rated enclosure
• cable entry via cable glands fitted to the enclosure: 10xM16 and 1xM20
• optional ADD-PMAALUXLM adapter for easy pole or lamppost mounting (sold separately)

The ABOX series outdoor enclosures provide a convenient solution for protecting devices and cable connections installed in outdoor conditions. High-quality plastic ensures resistance to UV radiation and other harsh weather conditions. The available models come equipped with a mounting plate featuring specially designed holes in a 10.8 mm pattern. This layout is fully compatible with the mounting hole pattern of installation modules. The system design allows selected devices to be mounted vertically or horizontally in any perforated section of the mounting plate.

Examples of applications

Example application of 3 IPUPS-3-30-ALUL kits connected to each other via fiber-optic cable to provide backup power for 9 IP cameras.

Example application of 3 IPUPS-3-30-ALUL kits connected in a ring topology to power 7 IP cameras with battery backup.

Example application of the IPUPS-3-30-ALUL kit together with the APT-5-50 module to provide backup power for 7 IP cameras.
