Status Monitoring
Monitoring, measuring and managing power supplies, batteries and generators are not easy tasks.
However, in order to maintain customer satisfaction, reduce operating costs and meet regulatory
requirements, you need specific information from your systems. Alpha’s status monitoring solutions
use state-of-the-art communications technology to transmit critical network performance data to the
headend or network management center. This allows you to be proactive and take corrective action
before serious problems occur. Whether you are extending the life of your network backup power
through battery balancing, managing QoS for VoIP services or monitoring for trouble areas during an
AC power outage, the AlphaNet™ series of products provides the tools to manage today’s network
power requirements with the ability to upgrade for tomorrow’s needs.
>AlphaNet DSM Series
The AlphaNet family of networking products, including the 3rd generation DOCSIS® Status Monitoring
broadband power communication card, enables Alpha’s XM3-HP, XM2-HP, XM2, XM2-300HP
and GMX CableUPS® to connect directly to an HFC network through an embedded DOCSIS
cable modem.
Through a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) interface, standard MIBs are used for
quick, efficient network status and diagnostics. A Web interface enables any authorized personnel
direct access to powerful, advanced diagnostics using a common web browser. No proprietary
software is required. A single DSM installed in an Alpha CableUPS supports communications and
system control for multiple Alpha power supplies and an AlphaGen™ generator system.
>AlphaNet IDH Series
25
Alpha's IDH transponders from Cheetah Technologies combine the latest monitoring capabilities with
advanced features available through the Cheetah XD management platform.
Alpha's EDH4 by Cheetah Technologies enables legacy power supplies to be monitored using the
latest DOCSIS transponders.
>Continuity DOCSIS Power Supply Monitoring
Continuity-SPS (Standby Power Supply) is a flexible standby power supply status monitoring solution.
Based on HMS and DOCSIS standards, Continuity supports any standards-based transponder,
providing you with a centralized, feature-rich, web-enabled tool to monitor all the standby power
supplies in your network.

AlphaCell® Batteries
Ensure optimal performance for your outdoor broadband, cable television and telecommunications
applications by incorporating AlphaCell batteries. With Alpha’s standby batteries, you don’t have to
worry about leakage, frequent replacements or cycling to obtain 100% capacity. They come ready
to support your network runtime expectations right out of the box. Whether it is the industry-leading
warranty, increased runtimes or maintenance-free threaded inserts, expect optimum performance
from AlphaCell batteries.
>AlphaCell HP
The AlphaCell HP brings pure lead technology to broadband power. Providing extended runtime
and up to 20% extended life expectancy, AlphaCell HP is the premium choice for your network.
AlphaCell 4.0 HP also provides potential operating expenditure reduction by reducing battery
string counts in situational applications.
>AlphaCell GXL
Alpha’s standby battery offering incorporates true GelCell and Silver Alloy grid battery
technologies, ensuring optimal performance for your outdoor cable, traffic or Wi-Fi application.
AlphaCell batteries provide the ultimate warranty, longest runtimes and superior longevity in
today’s demanding outdoor non-temperature controlled cable power environments.
>AlphaCell AGM
The AlphaCell batteries provide the ultimate warranties, the longest runtimes and the best
longevity in today’s demanding outdoor non-temperature controlled environments. AlphaCell AGM
57
batteries are an economical option for broadband, traffic and other indoor/outdoor UPS
applications. With a flame-arresting, one-way pressure-relief vent for safety and long life, and a
classified as non-hazardous material and are not restricted for air, water or surface transport.
>AlphaCell HPL-FT
The AlphaCell HPL-FT series batteries are constructed from a high performance lead alloy with
front terminals for use with Fiber Deep XM2-300HP and XM2-906HP power supply systems.
These batteries include a central gassing system, snap-in front covers, integral flame arrestor and
low self-discharge rates.
>AlphaGuard™
The AlphaGuard monitors and protects your batteries by spreading the charge voltage equally
across all batteries in the string, ensuring that every battery is properly charged. With an ideal
voltage across each battery, life and runtime are optimized. Individual batteries in a string can be
replaced as they fail, allowing good batteries to be left in service longer. This stops the wasteful
and costly practice of replacing complete battery strings based on a single battery failure.
>Battery Testing Equipment
A fast, reliable and affordable testing process is now available with the development of conductance
based battery measurement technology. By coupling conductance testing with a simple system load
or voltage test, the system operator is armed with the quality of data necessary to know the status of
their installed standby batteries and budget replacements with confidence.

>Up to 6-year full warranty with XM3-HP
>Non-spillable UN2800 rating for ease of transportation
>4.0HP offering 240 cable runtime minutes
>String Count Reduction to Reduce OpEx
AlphaCell 3.5 and 4.0HP
You can use fewer AlphaCell HP batteries compared to standard batteries, while maintaining network runtime reliability. For power
supply loads that are less than 8 Amps you can achieve a 4 hour runtime using a single string of 4.0HP batteries, compared to using
two strings of competitive batteries. Consult your Alpha sales engineer for a free network analysis on how to potentially reduce your
OpEx by up to 25 percent while increasing the reliability of the batteries in your network.
