- 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).
