Alcatel-Lucent PHP200B 849068119 E5I2TPPAAA Power Supply Module

Description

Product Introduction

The Alcatel-Lucent PHP200B (Part Number: 849068119, CLEI Code: E5I2TPPAAA) is a dedicated power supply unit engineered for telecom racks and carrier-grade switching hardware. Built to handle continuous operating cycles, this module delivers regulated DC bus power directly through system backplanes. It feeds power to downstream line interface cards and system processors across standard enterprise and central office infrastructure.

Unlike standard commercial power units, the PHP200B integrates thermal monitoring and current-limiting features to defend sensitive network hardware against input line transients. Replacing a worn or failing power module with a original Alcatel-Lucent PHP200B hardware unit prevents unexpected system resets, clears backplane fault flags, and maintains rail stability across loaded chassis shelves.

Key Technical Specifications

Application Scenarios & The “Trench” Experience

It is 2 AM on a rainy Tuesday. Your central office alarm system starts dropping critical shelf alerts across an active telecom loop. You pull up the syslog, expecting a failed fiber trunk, but instead see dirty power alarms followed by intermittent card dropouts. A degraded legacy power module is sagging under load, threatening to take down the entire chassis and hundreds of subscriber links.

• Telecommunications Central Offices – Main Rack Powering – Delivers clean DC distribution across multi-card subscriber sub-racks.
• Enterprise Fiber Nodes – Infrastructure PSU Replacement – Ensures stable power feeding to switching interfaces in core network rooms.
• Industrial Monitoring Hubs – Legacy Hardware Maintenance – Keeps long-lived legacy transport hardware powered without replacing entire node racks.

Field Case Study

A mid-sized regional transport hub experienced unexpected line card dropouts every time ambient temperatures spiked in their equipment room. The original power module’s filter capacitors had degraded over 12 years of nonstop runtime. Rather than spending tens of thousands of dollars on a forced shelf upgrade and re-provisioning subscriber lines, field engineers swapped out the failing module with a tested surplus Alcatel-Lucent PHP200B unit. The swap took under ten minutes, restored flat power rails, and cleared all backplane fault logs instantly.

Transparency SOP: Quality Assurance & Testing

We do not just ship boxes; we test them on actual Alcatel-Lucent chassis hardware before they ever ship to your facility. Our 5-step bench process includes:

1. Inbound Physical Inspection: Complete visual audit for cracked edge connectors, missing retention hardware, bent pins, or thermal stress discoloration.
2. Anti-Counterfeit & Serial Audit: Verification of original OEM labels, part number sequence (849068119), and CLEI barcoding (E5I2TPPAAA).
3. Live Chassis Handshake: Insertion into a live test rack to verify physical fit, backplane mating, and initial power-on self-test (POST) status LEDs.
4. Load & Thermal Testing: Running the module under operational electrical load on our test bench to monitor voltage output ripple and verify stability under load.
5. ESD-Safe Packaging: Cleaned, tagged with exact firmware and hardware revs, and packed in static-shielded bubble wrap inside custom foam-lined shipping boxes.

The Veteran’s Tech Trap Guide (Crucial Value-Add)

• ⚠️ Check Backplane Pin Alignment Before Seating: Never force this card into the chassis slot if you feel high resistance. Old rack guides warp over time. If you bend a backplane socket pin while sliding in the card, you will turn a 5-minute module swap into an all-day chassis replacement.
• ❗ Verify Your CLEI / Part Number Match: Alcatel-Lucent manufactured variants of these modules that look identical from the front faceplate but feature different internal output pin configurations. Double-check that your failed unit reads 849068119 and E5I2TPPAAA before sliding the new one in.
• ⚠️ Do Not Ignore Faceplate Retaining Screws: Always tighten the thumb screws on the faceplate completely. These screws do not just keep the module in place—they often complete the chassis ground loop. Leaving them loose can introduce noise onto adjacent data lines.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ for Conversion)

Q: Is this Alcatel-Lucent PHP200B power module hot-swappable?

A: Check your specific chassis architecture manual first. While many carrier-grade sub-racks support hot swapping if a redundant power supply unit is actively sharing the load, pulling a single-source power module live will instantly kill power to every line card on that shelf. If you lack dynamic redundancy on the bus, power down the shelf before pulling the module.

Q: How do you verify the unit isn’t counterfeit or broken internal surplus?

A: Every unit in our warehouse goes through physical and electrical testing. We verify the factory serial tags, check edge connector integrity, and power the card up under load on a matching Alcatel-Lucent test rig before boxing it.

Q: What warranty comes with this module?

A: We back all New Surplus and Refurbished units with a standard 12-month operational warranty. If it fails or throws a fault code during normal operation within 365 days, we replace it or refund it.

Q: Why buy factory surplus instead of going directly through the OEM?

A: Legacy modules like the 849068119 are often marked as End-of-Life (EOL) or lead-time restricted by the OEM, forcing expensive hardware upgrades. Sourcing verified surplus gets you genuine OEM parts immediately, keeping your legacy infrastructure online for a fraction of the upgrade cost.
