Altronix Tango8P Series PoE Driven Multi-Output Power Supplies with
Lithium Battery Backup
Overview:
Altronix Tango8P(CB) PoE Driven Multi-Output Power Supply converts an IEEE802.3bt PoE input into eight (8) regulated 24VDC and/or 12VDC outputs up to 72W. Ideal for access installations, it eliminates the need for a high voltage inside the enclosure. Tango8P(CB) is designed to support a single 12V LiFePO4 (Lithium Iron Phosphate) battery for 12VDC and 24VDC backup.
Specifications
Ethernet Input:
- 802.3bt PoE up to 90W or 802.3at up to 30W or 802.3af up to 15W.
- CAT-6 or higher cable is recommended for optimum performance.
ًPower Output (when using 802.3bt 90W):
-
12VDC up to 6.25A (72W) and/or 24VDC up to 3A (72W). Combined output not to exceed 72W.
-
When charging batteries:
12VDC up to 5.4A (62W) and/or 24VDC up to 2.7A (62W) Combined output not to exceed 62W. -
Tango8P: Fuse protected outputs rated @ 3A per output, non power-limited.
Tango8PCB: PTC protected outputs rated @ 2A per output, Class 2 power- limited. -
Any of the eight (8) fuse/PTC protected power outputs are selectable to follow power Input 1 or Input 2. Output voltage of each output is the same as the input voltage of the input selected.
-
Individual outputs may be set to OFF position for servicing.
-
Surge suppression.
Fuse/PTC Ratings:
- PDS8: Main input fuses rated @ 10A/32V each. Output fuses rated @ 3A/32V each.
- PDS8CB: Main input PTCs rated @ 9A each. Output PTCs rated @ 2A each.
- TANGO1B: Battery fuse rated @ 10A/32V each. Ethernet Output (Tango1B):
- Pass-through Ethernet Port (data only).
- 100/1G.
Battery (Tango1B):
- 12VDC battery charger for Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery (LiFeP04 only).
- Unique technology allows for single battery to backup 12VDC and/or 24VDC systems.
- Low power shutdown. Shuts down DC output terminals if battery voltage drops below 80% of nominal. Prevents deep battery discharge.
Supervision:
- Loss of PoE Input.
- Battery Supervision.
Visual Indicators:
- Tango1B:
- Input indicates input voltage is present.
- Battery status indicates battery trouble condition.
- PoE Class indicator.
- Supervision PoE Fail or BAT Fail.
- PDS8(CB):
- Individual voltage LEDs indicate
12VDC (Green) or 24VDC (Green and Red).
- Individual voltage LEDs indicate
Environmental:
- Operating temperature: 0ºC to 49ºC ambient.
- Humidity: 20 to 85%, non-condensing.

Installation Instructions:
Wiring methods shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code/NFPA 70/NFPA 72/ANSI, the Canadian Electrical Code and with all local codes and authorities having jurisdiction. Product is intended for indoor use only.
-
Mount unit in desired location. Mark and predrill holes in the wall to line up with the top two keyholes in the enclosure. Install two upper fasteners and screws in the wall with the screw heads protruding. Place the enclosure’s upper keyholes over the two upper screws, level and secure. Mark the position of the lower two holes. Remove the enclosure. Drill the lower holes and install the two fasteners. Place the enclosure’s upper keyholes over the two upper screws. Install the two lower screws and make sure to tighten all screws (Enclosure Dimensions, pg. 8). Secure enclosure to earth ground.
-
Ensure all output jumpers [OUT1 – OUT8] on PDS8(CB) are placed in the OFF (center) position marked [•].
-
Connect IEEE802.3bt PSE from PoE source to RJ45 Jack marked [PoE+ Data Input] on the Tango1B board (Fig. 2b, pg. 4). If Data pass-through is required, connect another
Note:
CAT-6 or higher cable is recommended for optimum performance.
IEEE802.3bt PSE to RJ45 jack marked [Data Output] (Fig. 2a, pg. 4).
CAUTION:
Do not touch exposed metal parts.
There are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer installation and servicing to qualified service personnel. -
Set each output [OUT1 – OUT8] to route power from Input 1 or Input 2 (jumper position 1 or 2)
IN1 = 24VDC, IN2 = 12VDC.
Note:
Measure output voltage before connecting devices. This helps avoiding potential damage. -
Connect devices to terminal pairs 1 to 8, marked [P (Positive) – OUT1-OUT8, N (Negative)]
-
When the use of stand-by batteries is desired, they must be Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4). Connect batteries to the terminals marked [+ BAT –] on Tango1B (battery leads included) (Fig. 2f, pg. 4).
-
Connect appropriate signaling notification devices to terminals marked [C FAIL NC] (Fig. 2c, pg. 4) supervisory relay output.
