I can find the PSU wattage in the datasheet, but I can’t seem to find approximate power consumption numbers for the 8 and 16 port OLTs. Can we get a “base” consumption, and consumption per additional PON port?
Thanks!
The photos below show power draw during boot and steady state in a 72°F room for unloaded 8- and 16-port OLTs. Each installed optic increases overall consumption. Power ranges from about 75 W at idle (no load, minimal fan activity) up to 250 W, the limit of the power supply.
When planning, budget for additional draw from PON optics, uplink optics, and higher fan load at elevated temperatures:
-
Combo OLT (GPON+XGS-PON) optic: ~3 W
-
GPON-only optic: ~1 W
-
XGS-only optic: ~2 W
