Introduction
The power supply module provides current to the modules installed on the local rack, including the controller. The controller current consumption contributes to the total rack consumption.
Controller Power Consumption
Typical controller consumption with a 24 Vdc power supply:
Controller |

BMEP5820•0(H) |
270 mA |
BMEP5830•0 |
295 mA |
BMEP5840•0 |
295 mA |
BMEP585040(C)(C) |
300 mA |
BMEP586040(C) |
300 mA |
BMEH582040(C) |
335 mA (with a copper SFP) |
BMEH584040(C) |
360 mA (with a copper SFP) |
BMEH586040(C)(C) |
365 mA (with a copper SFP) |
Mean Time Between Failures (MBTF)
For all controllers, the MTBF (measured at 30 °C continuous) is 600,000 hours.
