10 Hybrid-Cable-System BRUpowermil Ø5.8mm / 69kg/km 4F SM, 2x 1.6mm 2 Cu 1000VAC / 1500VDC / 16 A Max power 24 kw Hybrid-connector Transformer (source + consumer) The design of the ruggedized cable is optimized for low volume and low weight. > A thin cable (5.8mm) distributes data (Gb/s) and Energy (kw). The solution is cost effective and the cabling is simplified a lot. > One cable and interface for data and current. The topology of the network may be point to point, point to multi point, ring ore mesh. > Flexibility and redundancy. The electrical sources may be distributed over the whole network. > Best place and redundancy Centralized power source may be used to feed remote stations. > Long distance (e.g. 5km) and high power (e.g. 2kW) The data-power-devices are scalable easily and the number of interfaces, the LAN and the amount of power can grow according the needs. Hybrid-network-distributor

11 Hybrid Solution Deployable solar panel Deployable hydropower device > Hybrid-network-distributors and transformers The hybrid-cable-system supports renewable energy sources. Therefore the local energy resources can be used, which are e.g. solar energy, wind force and hydropower. > Reduction of expensive fossil energy resources All the energy inputs and outlets are intelligent nodes and are connected to the LAN. This enables efficient surveillance and control of all the devices. > Optimized energy sources, energy storage and consumption. The management system supports ad hoc configuration and supports the user by proposal and generates warnings to prevent errors. > Supports planning, installation and extension of the network Transportable energy management Comprehensive management system

12 Characteristics of the hybrid solution This architecture is based on: An innovative tactical cable for distribution that uses copper wires for power transmission and optical fibre for data transmission both in base camp and towards remote sites. A Hybrid-Network-Distributor combining both data and power onto the same cable A hybrid power production system ready for using renewable power An innovative completely passive outdoor cabinet to protect equipment against extreme environmental conditions without air-conditioning and reduce system self-consumption Re-use of existing gensets and in-camp data and power distribution in first example Distribution of Radio Base Station via IP Central management SNMP system Redundancy via tactical cable for data and power distribution Redundancy via radio links for data distribution

13 Components in hybrid solution The new architecture consists of a number of components: Power generation o Fossil Fuel, Sun, Wind, Water or any combination can be used to generate power Storage o Lead-Acid batteries, Li-Ion Batteries, Vanadiun/Redflow, Hydrogen storage, Super Capacitor Power Management o Intelligent, operation and control, universal, redundant, modular, flexible Distribution of data and power o AC/DC, IP, Fibre for data, cupper for power, redundancy (ring, mesh)

43 What is next step? When you look at your needs for a hybrid future data / power network you must consider the following criteria: The existing power sources The geographical location (which renewable power available) The existing data interfaces The existing power and data consumers (main and auxiliaries) The logistical constraints The number of power and data interfaces at different places The environmental conditions and MIL-standards (water, dust, vibration, shock, EMI, EMC, temperature, solar irradiation, wind speed, communication needs available ) Based on the answers a bespoke solution can be designed using standard available components
