With it, individuals and organizations can continue to render services to both themselves and their customers. Overviews The 5G network architecture uses multiple types of power supplies.
The backhaul part of the 5G network connects the access interface - including masts, eNodeB, and cell site gateway - to the mobile core and internet beyond. And just like the access equipment, it too has specific power supply requirements. Backhaul power supplies must cater to aggregation routers and core routers.
While the overall power draw is often lower, 5G equipment has narrower tolerances. It often needs multiple, precise voltages to operate correctly, with scarce leeway on either side. In the following section, we discuss 5G infrastructure power supply considerations in more detail. 5G delivers coverage to an area in a different way from 4G.
Small cells will need to be able to fit in compact environments, such as traffic lights, utility poles, and rooftops. So power supply units will need to be compact, able to fit comfortably alongside the equipment they power. There are also considerable heat dissipation issues that 5G equipment power supply units will need to accommodate.
Experts widely believe that 5G small cells need to be able to continue running in the event of electrical anomalies. Pairing them with integrated power supply devices costs more, but it also protects small cells if there are dramatic changes in voltage.
The access side of the 5G stack includes user equipment such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and desktop devices. Devices in this part of the stack require power supply equipment that can operate at room temperatures indoors and protect sensitive electronics - already a well-developed area.
