1 Scope
The present document describes the principles for powering of Telecommunications Equipment (TE) in access
networks (both traditional copper based and Next Generation fibre and/or hybrid based) and contains requirements for
the powering systems, laying down:
• the characteristics of the input and output interfaces of the power units; the recommendations for TE power
protection, also regarding network integrity and public services availability requirements;
• the management data, necessary to guarantee the required availability of the network and provided public
services and to ensure the maintenance of the TE power units.
The present document takes into account the innovative characteristics of fibre-based access network equipment, for
which the intrinsic limitation of the local power plants should be considered regarding the equipment installed inside
telecom centre or local exchanges or installed in streets or inside buildings: it goes from "complete integration of the
power plant in the TE" to "remote power feeding from a distant power plant".
The present document provides detailed information in annex A on the improved reliability of public electric power grid
and on the improved reliability and availability of new fibre-based NGA network. It should be considered that, for street
cabinet TE, the local power scenario is common and, in that case, the main power supply availability characteristics are
mainly based on electrical energy provider's performance.
The present document applies to the powering of all equipment of the access network (copper, fibre or radio networks)
located inside or outside telecommunications centres or local exchanges, differentiating the applicable and sustainable
power protection requirements. The access network is defined as the part of the telecommunications network, which
comprises the network termination (passive or active) that is installed inside customer premises and the first exchange
that can be also the broadband local exchange.
As innovative fibre-based and hybrid-based NGA network TE are changing the traditional powering paradigm, the
present document proposes the viable measures to comply with the integrity, availability and uninterrupted
telephone/VoIP provision that European regulatory defines for public networks [i.18].
The present document describes different configurations of powering the TE and the impacts on networks and services
continuity and reliability:
• Local power supply for TE (e.g. street cabinet, active network termination, etc.).
• Remote Feeding to TE from central office through copper access pair.
• Cluster Power supply feeding power for a cluster of TE.
• Remote power feeding to TE from centre or cluster power through a power cable.
• Back feeding or Reverse Powering architecture that can supply power to Access Network Units such as ONU
or ONT or remote DSL unit from the customer premises through its final distribution access copper pair.

6 Draft ETSI EN 302 099 V2.1.30 (2020-10)
1 Scope
The present document describes the principles for powering of Telecommunications Equipment (TE) in access
networks (both traditional copper based and Next Generation fibre and/or hybrid based) and contains requirements for
the powering systems, laying down:
• the characteristics of the input and output interfaces of the power units; the recommendations for TE power
protection, also regarding network integrity and public services availability requirements;
• the management data, necessary to guarantee the required availability of the network and provided public
services and to ensure the maintenance of the TE power units.
The present document takes into account the innovative characteristics of fibre-based access network equipment, for
which the intrinsic limitation of the local power plants should be considered regarding the equipment installed inside
telecom centre or local exchanges or installed in streets or inside buildings: it goes from "complete integration of the
power plant in the TE" to "remote power feeding from a distant power plant".
The present document provides detailed information in annex A on the improved reliability of public electric power grid
and on the improved reliability and availability of new fibre-based NGA network. It should be considered that, for street
cabinet TE, the local power scenario is common and, in that case, the main power supply availability characteristics are
mainly based on electrical energy provider's performance.
The present document applies to the powering of all equipment of the access network (copper, fibre or radio networks)
located inside or outside telecommunications centres or local exchanges, differentiating the applicable and sustainable
power protection requirements. The access network is defined as the part of the telecommunications network, which
comprises the network termination (passive or active) that is installed inside customer premises and the first exchange
that can be also the broadband local exchange.
As innovative fibre-based and hybrid-based NGA network TE are changing the traditional powering paradigm, the
present document proposes the viable measures to comply with the integrity, availability and uninterrupted
telephone/VoIP provision that European regulatory defines for public networks [i.18].
The present document describes different configurations of powering the TE and the impacts on networks and services
continuity and reliability:
• Local power supply for TE (e.g. street cabinet, active network termination, etc.).
• Remote Feeding to TE from central office through copper access pair.
• Cluster Power supply feeding power for a cluster of TE.
• Remote power feeding to TE from centre or cluster power through a power cable.
• Back feeding or Reverse Powering architecture that can supply power to Access Network Units such as ONU
or ONT or remote DSL unit from the customer premises through its final distribution access copper pair.

1 Scope
The present document describes the principles for powering of Telecommunications Equipment (TE) in access
networks (both traditional copper based and Next Generation fibre and/or hybrid based) and contains requirements for

protection, also regarding network integrity and public services availability requirements;
• the management data, necessary to guarantee the required availability of the network and provided public
services and to ensure the maintenance of the TE power units.
The present document takes into account the innovative characteristics of fibre-based access network equipment, for
which the intrinsic limitation of the local power plants should be considered regarding the equipment installed inside
telecom centre or local exchanges or installed in streets or inside buildings: it goes from "complete integration of the
power plant in the TE" to "remote power feeding from a distant power plant".
The present document provides detailed information in annex A on the improved reliability of public electric power grid
and on the improved reliability and availability of new fibre-based NGA network. It should be considered that, for street
cabinet TE, the local power scenario is common and, in that case, the main power supply availability characteristics are
mainly based on electrical energy provider's performance.
The present document applies to the powering of all equipment of the access network (copper, fibre or radio networks)
located inside or outside telecommunications centres or local exchanges, differentiating the applicable and sustainable
power protection requirements. The access network is defined as the part of the telecommunications network, which
comprises the network termination (passive or active) that is installed inside customer premises and the first exchange

As innovative fibre-based and hybrid-based NGA network TE are changing the traditional powering paradigm, the
present document proposes the viable measures to comply with the integrity, availability and uninterrupted
telephone/VoIP provision that European regulatory defines for public networks [i.18].
The present document describes different configurations of powering the TE and the impacts on networks and services
continuity and reliability:
• Local power supply for TE (e.g. street cabinet, active network termination, etc.).
• Remote Feeding to TE from central office through copper access pair.
• Cluster Power supply feeding power for a cluster of TE.
• Remote power feeding to TE from centre or cluster power through a power cable.
• Back feeding or Reverse Powering architecture that can supply power to Access Network Units such as ONU
or ONT or remote DSL unit from the customer premises through its final distribution access copper pair.
