Thermal Design And Test Requirements For Outside Plant Cable Telecommunications Equipment (2001)

By Al Marshall, P.E., Philips Broadband Networks

Shrinking thermal margins, driven by sophisticated but thermally sensitive components, greater heat dissipation and industry requirements to operate in more challenging environments, threaten the reliability of outside plant equipment in advanced broadband networks. Simply specifying an ambient temperature of -40°C to +60°C is no longer adequate for outside plant equipment because the effects of wind speed, installation type and solar radiation can eliminate the thermal margin.
