New Field-Configurable NEMA 3R Enclosures Offer Wide Array of Circuit Breaker Options

IRVINE, Calif. − Transtector, an Infinite Electronics brand and a leading provider of end-to-end power and signal integrity solutions, has just added to its line of SC-2MMA9 outdoor AC load centers for small-cell sites. The new enhanced integrated panel design can connect directly to a utility service and provide tailored circuit breaker configurations for all typical small-cell equipment deployments. They also feature integrated surge protection, and options to equip a GFCI convenience outlet and a shunt-trip-style main breaker for external de-energization of AC power.

These compact, field-configurable load centers are designed for a broad range of applications including cellular/telecom, broadband, small cells, picocells, micro cells, 5G nodes, right-of-way expansion, DAS systems and more. There is enough power capacity to operate all types of small-cell architectures, including multi-tenant (co-location) sites.

All of the new AC load centers have a 100-amp two-pole main breaker for 120/240 VAC split-phase services. These panels can also be equipped with a high-current branch breaker up to 60-amp two-pole for sub-panel or right-of-way (ROW) expansion. They are all UL67 listed and service entrance rated, suitable for use as service equipment (SUSE). The SUSE rating eliminates the need for a separate upstream disconnect box, saving cost and space.

Installers can customize a circuit breaker configuration for a wide variety of equipment by implementing up to 14 one-pole or up to seven two-pole load breakers. Five base models are available, with various combinations of 10-, 15-, 20-, 25-, or 60-amp load or branch breakers with one or two poles.

To safeguard against lightning and utility switching transients, all models employ Transtector’s renowned surge protection using high-capacity metal oxide varistor (MOV) technology with very low voltage protection level.

All the new AC load centers carry a NEMA 3R environmental protection rating. Weatherproof gaskets and seals prevent water ingress around the door, including under falling rain, sleet and snow. Their 9-inch-wide profile allows them to be discretely installed externally on poles or within integrated pole structures. The galvanized, powder-coated steel cabinets include a padlock hasp for security.

“Our new outdoor AC load centers will economically power and protect your small-cell site,” said Product Line Manager Dan Rebeck. “They also let you easily reconfigure the panel in the field as the needs of each of your sites evolve.”

Transtector’s new additions to its SC-2MMA9 series of outdoor AC load centers for small-cell sites are in-stock now and available for immediate shipment. Call us to create the custom configuration you need!
