The Keysight Technologies Series N8700 System DC Power Supplies
are general-purpose, 2U (two rack units) high, switching power
supplies that are available with a wide variety of output voltage and
current ratings. There are both 3.3 kW and 5 kW models.
These power supplies are power-factor corrected and have flexible
AC input voltage options. Output voltage and current are
continuously displayed and LED indicators show the complete
operating status of the power supply.
The front panel controls allow the user to set the output parameters,
over-voltage, under-voltage, and over-current protection levels, and
preview the settings.
The rear panel includes the necessary connectors to control and
monitor the power supply operation by analog signals or by the built-
in remote communication interfaces.
