Power Supplies for Telecom Systems | Analog Devices
For a simple telecom system, reduced to the minimum for the sake of clarity (Figure 2), we consider three possible approaches for the power supply.

Communications infrastructure equipment employs a variety of power system components. Power factor corrected (PFC) AC/DC power supplies with load sharing and redundancy (N+1) at the front-end feed dense, high efficiency DC/DC modules and point-of-load converters on the back-end. These systems ensure a stable and uninterrupted power supply, which is critical for the operation of telecommunication networks. This article focuses on the Analog Devices MAX15258, which is designed to accommodate up to two MOSFET drivers and four external MOSFETs in single-phase or dual-phase boost/inverting-buck-boost configurations. Ever-higher levels of integration offered by new semiconductor technology are enabling today's telecom systems to incorporate more and more functions in increasingly smaller dimensions.
