Title: RRC 1258D Power Consumption
Post by: K6VVA on 2009-04-06, 22:39:50

What is the MAXimum power consumption in AMPS (at 12volts DC) of the RRC 1258D unit which would be used at the remote TS-480 (rig body - TXRX) location?

Please include this valuable information (for remote station solar/battery users) in your Tech specs.

Tnx & 73...

Hi
Power consumtion at remote end is 110mA when connected to 10 Mbit/s Ethernet and 155 mA at 100Mbit/s. At control end its about 260-500 mA depending on TS480 display backlighter and audio volume. With IC-706 panel it's slightly higher.
