  - 2 -  Tango8A(CB) - PoE Driven Access Controller
Overview:
Altronix  Tango8A(CB) PoE Driven Power Supply with Access Power Controller converts an IEEE802.3bt 
PoE input into eight (8) regulated 24VDC and/or 12VDC outputs up to 65W. It eliminates the need for a high 
voltage inside of an enclosure. Tango8A(CB) is designed to support a single 12VDC LiFePO
4
 (Lithium Iron 
Phosphate) battery for 12VDC and 24VDC backup.
Specifications:
Inputs: 
Tango1B:
•  802.3bt PoE up to 90W or 802.3at up to 30W
  or 802.3af up to 15W.
ACMS8/ACMS8CB:
•  Eight (8) trigger inputs: 
    a) Normally open (NO) inputs (dry contacts). 
    b) Normally closed (NC) inputs (dry contacts).
    c) Open collector sink inputs.
    d) Wet Input (5VDC - 24VDC) with 10K resistor
    e) Any combination of the above. 
Outputs:
Tango1B:
•  12VDC up to 5.4A (65W)
  and/or 24VDC up to 2.7A (65W).
  Combined output not to exceed 65W.
•  When charging batteries:
  12VDC up to 4.6A (55W) and/or
  24VDC up to 2.3A (55W)
  Combined output not to exceed 55W.
ACMS8:
•  Fuse protected outputs rated @ 2.5A per output, 
  non power-limited. Total output 20A max. 
  Do not exceed the individual power supply ratings.
  See Input/Output Voltage Ratings, pg. 6.
ACMS8CB:
•  PTC protected outputs rated @ 2A per output, 
  Class 2 power-limited. Total output 16A max.
  Do not exceed the individual power supply ratings.
  See Input/Output Voltage Ratings, pg. 6.
  Total output current should not exceed max. current
  rating of the power supplies employed on each input.
 See Maximum Output of Altronix Power Supplies.
•  Eight (8) selectable independently controlled 
  outputs or eight (8) indepently controlled 
  Form “C” relay outputs (see below for ratings): 
    a) Fail-Safe and/or Fail-Secure power outputs. 
    b) Form “C” relays rated @ 2.5A. 5, 12, 
      24VDC, 0.6 Power Factor (ACMS8 only).
    c) Auxiliary power outputs (unswitched).
    d) Any combination of the above. 
•  Individual outputs may be set to OFF position for 
  servicing (output jumper set to middle position).
  Does not apply to Dry Contact applications.
•  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.
  See Input/Output Voltage Ratings, pg. 6.
•  Surge suppression..
Fuse/PTC Ratings:
•  ACMS8(CB)
 - Main input fuses rated 15A/32V each.
 - Output fuses are rated 3A/32V (ACMS8).
 - Output PTCs are rated 2A (ACMS8CB).
•  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 (LiFeP0
4
 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 (Tango1B):
•  Loss of PoE Input.
•  Battery Supervision.
Fire Alarm Disconnect:
•  Fire Alarm disconnect (latching or non-latching) is 
  individually selectable for any or all of the 
  eight (8) outputs.
  Fire Alarm disconnect input options: 
    a) Normally open [NO] or normally closed [NC] 
      dry contact input. Polarity reversal input from 
 FACP signaling circuit. 
•  FACP input WET is rated 5-30VDC 7mA.
•  FACP input EOL requires 10K end of line resistor.
•  FACP output relay [NC]: 
  Either Dry 1A/28VDC, 0.6 Power Factor or 
  10K resistance with [EOL JMP] intact.
Visual Indicators:
•  Tango1B
 - Input indicates input voltage is present.
 - Battery status indicates battery trouble condition.
  -  PoE Class indicator.
  -  Supervision PoE Fail or BAT Fail.
•  ACMS8(CB)
 - Red LEDs indicate outputs are triggered.
 - Blue LED indicates FACP disconnect
 is triggered.
 - Individual voltage LED indicates
 12VDC (Green) or 24VDC (Red).
Environmental:
•  Operating temperature: 0ºC to 49ºC ambient.
•  Humidity: 20 to 85%, non-condensing.
Enclosure Dimensions (approximate H x W x D):
  15.5” x 12.25” x 4.5” (394mm x 311mm x 114mm).
