48V Lithium Telecom Batteries
48V 100Ah LiFePO4 Battery For Telecom And Data Centres
The standard backup module for 48V DC plant: 100Ah, 4800 Wh, in a 482 x 480 x 132 mm rack case at 40 kg.
Product Overview
The standard backup module for 48V DC plant: 100Ah, 4800 Wh, in a 482 x 480 x 132 mm rack case at 40 kg. It replaces a VRLA string in access network infrastructure, mobile communication units, remote exchange stations and data centre plant, with a 100A smart BMS providing multiple protection and 6000+ cycles of published life. Optional Bluetooth and low-temperature heating are available for sites where monitoring or winter charging matter.
Key benefits
Why Buyers Choose This Pack
Slim 132 mm Rack Module
Three rack units of height for 4.8 kWh, which leaves the cabinet space that a VRLA string would have consumed.
40 kg Instead Of A String
One module handled by two people, against a lead-acid string that needs equipment and two visits.
Monitoring That Prevents Site Visits
Bluetooth option plus BMS reporting means cell drift appears as data rather than as an outage.
Heating For Unheated Cabinets
Optional low-temperature heating so the site can still recharge in winter rather than sitting blocked by the BMS.
Application scenarios
Where It Is Used
- Base station and tower site backup
- Access network cabinets and remote exchanges
- Data centre and comms room 48V DC plant
- Microwave links and transmission equipment
- Security, monitoring and control system UPS duty
- Solar-hybrid telecom installations
Who it is for
The Buyers This Pack Suits
Telecom Operators
Replacing VRLA across an estate where truck rolls dominate the cost of ownership.
Data Centre Engineers
Backing up 48V DC plant in cabinets where weight and rack units are both budgeted.
Integrators And Resellers
Supplying the most common capacity in telecom backup as a stocked item.
Problems it solves
What It Fixes
Silent VRLA Degradation
A lead-acid string loses capacity invisibly. A lithium BMS reports state of charge and balance continuously.
Handling Weight On Site
40 kg per module is a two-person lift; a VRLA string of equivalent energy is not.
Winter Charge Blocking
Cold cabinets stop lithium charging for good reason. The heating option is the fix, specified up front.

Packing and documents
How It Ships And What Comes With It
Packing And Shipping
Packing follows UN38.3 requirements for lithium battery transport, and the carton and pallet arrangement is confirmed with the quotation for your quantity and destination. We do not publish a fixed carton specification here because it changes with order size and freight mode.
Documentation
UN38.3 and the MSDS travel with every lithium shipment, and the certificates listed in the specification table above are supplied for the model you order. Tell us the destination market at the quotation stage so the document set is planned rather than chased after the goods are built. Where a certificate we do not hold is required, we will say so rather than promise it.
Manufacturing
This pack is built at Shenzhen Sike Power Technology Co., Ltd. in Da Peng New District, Shenzhen, with cell grading, assembly, BMS integration, aging test and final inspection carried out in house. Only brand-new grade A LiFePO4 cells and a top-brand smart BMS go into it.

Installation guide
Getting It Right First Time
Step 1
Size the module count from site load in kW times the hold-up hours, with headroom for ageing.
Step 2
Set the rectifier to a LiFePO4 profile and configure RS485 or CAN communication before commissioning.
Step 3
Confirm the cabinet is indoor-rated: this module is IP20 and relies on the enclosure for protection.
Step 4
Specify heating where the cabinet can freeze during a charge cycle.
Step 5
Do not run the module in parallel with an existing lead-acid string.
Comparison
How It Compares In Our Range
Same rack case as the 50Ah module, double the energy; the 200Ah module doubles it again in a larger case.
| 48V 50Ah | 2.4 kWh, 27 kg, same 482 x 480 x 132 mm case |
|---|---|
| 48V 100Ah | 4.8 kWh, 40 kg, the standard backup module |
| 48V 200Ah | 10 kWh, long hold-up, parallels to 40 kWh |
| 51.2V 100Ah rack module | Same capacity at IP54 for solar and UPS work |
FAQ
48V 100Ah LiFePO4 Battery For Telecom And Data Centres Questions
How long will this hold a base station?
4.8 kWh divided by the site load, less conversion losses. A 1 kW site gets roughly four usable hours. Send us the real load and hold-up target and we will confirm the module count.
Can it replace my VRLA string directly?
Mechanically it fits a 19-inch rack at 482 x 480 x 132 mm. Electrically, the rectifier needs a LiFePO4 charge profile and a communication link. Send the rectifier model and we will confirm.
What does IP20 mean in practice?
Indoor cabinet rating - protection against finger contact, not against water. The enclosure provides the environmental protection at outdoor sites.
Is Bluetooth standard?
It is published as an option on this model, along with low-temperature heating. Specify both at enquiry if you want them.
How many can be paralleled?
The telecom range publishes parallel operation up to fifteen units. Send your requirement and we will confirm for this model.
Which certificates apply?
MSDS, UN38.3, CE, ROHS and UL.
