ABSTRACT:
A central office transceiver-installed current limiter and regulator provides fault isolation and transient load isolation in a wireline communication network, having multiple transceivers connected by respective span-powered wirelines to a common power source at the central office. Using a current-sense resistor and controlled switch in series with the wireline, the current-limiter and regulator processes input electrical power from the power source prior to coupling that power to a remote transceiver. To prevent overheating and substantial power dissipation in the current-limiting circuitry in the event of a prolonged fault condition, the controlled switch is alternately turned on and off.
