Switching Power Supplies & Rectifiers

Regulated DC for sites whose loads are DC-powered: base stations, utility DC panels, substations, railway signalling and industrial control cabinets.

HighIdea switching power supplies turn an AC mains feed or an existing DC bus into a regulated, low-noise DC output. They are the building blocks of telecom base stations, utility DC panels, substation control rooms, railway signalling cabinets and industrial control systems, where the load is DC-powered equipment rather than AC appliances.

These are not UPS systems and not inverters. A UPS Power Supply protects AC loads with a battery and an inverter; a Power & Telecom Inverter turns a DC bus into AC. A rectifier or switching supply does the opposite of an inverter: it produces a stable DC bus, charges the battery string connected to it, and keeps communication or protection equipment running while the mains fluctuates.

The range is split by conversion direction:

  • Rectifier & AC-DC Power Modules — 1U / 2U rack rectifiers and embedded 48V telecom power systems, from a single 2U RP module to an 800A modular RT system. Four platforms: RP 2U, RT4860, RT2430 1U and RT 30-800A.
  • DC-DC Converters — RP 2U converters that translate between 24 / 48 / 110 / 220VDC station buses without an AC stage.

Specifying a system. Fix the DC bus voltage first (24 / 48 / 110 / 220VDC — it cannot be changed later), then the total output current and the N+1 redundancy target, the AC input range and whether a wide 90-280Vac window is needed, the battery chemistry (VRLA or LiFePO4) and autonomy, the low-voltage disconnect setpoints, and the monitoring interface (RS232 / RS485 / dry contacts / SNMP). State whether front-only access or hot-swap modules are required by the cabinet layout.

All systems are built in our own factory and support OEM/ODM customization of output voltage, current rating, enclosure height, distribution breakers, alarm thresholds, communication protocol and branding. Pair them with LiFePO4 battery packs or a conventional VRLA string.

Switching Power Supplies & Rectifiers — frequently asked questions

Is a rectifier the same as a UPS or an inverter?
No. A UPS protects AC loads with a battery and inverter; an inverter turns DC into AC. A rectifier or switching supply does the opposite of an inverter: it produces a regulated DC bus, charges the connected battery string and keeps DC equipment running while mains fluctuates.
What DC output voltages and capacities are available?
Systems cover 24, 48, 110 and 220VDC, from a single 2U RP rectifier module through RT4860 and RT2430 embedded systems to modular RT 30-800A platforms with hot-swap modules and N+1 redundancy.
What should I specify when ordering?
Fix the DC bus voltage first, then total output current and N+1 redundancy, AC input range (including whether a wide 90-280Vac window is needed), battery chemistry and autonomy, low-voltage disconnect setpoints, monitoring interface and whether front-only access is required.
Do you supply DC-DC converters too?
Yes. The DC-DC Converters sub-category covers RP 2U modules that translate between 24 / 48 / 110 / 220VDC station buses without an AC stage.
