  Tango8AP(CB) - PoE Driven Multi-Output Power Supply/Charge With Access Power Controller  - 3 -
Overview:
Altronix Tango8AP(CB) PoE Driven Multi-Output Power Supply/Charger With Access Power Controller con-
verts an IEEE802.3bt PoE input into eight (8) regulated 24VDC and/or 12VDC outputs and eight (8) protected 
24VDC and/or 12VDC outputs up to 65W. It eliminates the need for a high voltage inside of an enclosure. 
Tango8AP(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. 
•  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.
