2.2.3 Exchange Panel 4/2
See Fig. 2−20.
To relieve the more delicate SMA connectors of the SPU from mechanical stress imposed by stiff RF
cables, the Ground Station AS 682 provides an Exchange Panel (4/2) together with the appropriate
cables to connect both the VHF RX input cables and the GPS input cable from RX/GPS antenna and
SPU 1 and 2.

2.2.4 Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS)
See Figs. 1−3, 2−21, 2−22.
The AS682 ground station is equipped with an additional rack−mounted uninterruptible power sup-
ply module (UPS, X1000 R) with extension pack, dedicated to one SPU each. These UPS are used
to supply the individual GS in case of a power supply failure.
An additional SNMP support card is available so that UPS parameters like battery loading status, time-
out configuration, voltages, alarms, etc. are available via SNMP. It is connected to the Data Switch
in order to provide network connectivity.
