Functions of the PU3f module
The PU3f (Processing Unit) is the central control module of the SWT 3000 unit. At the transmit
end it converts protection commands that are received via an interface module IFC-D or IFC-P into
tones of a defined frequency. If the PU3 is housed in a remote (stand-alone) SWT 3000 unit these
are transmitted either via a copper line equipment module CLE on a cable link to the distant station
or to the interface module of a PLC unit. From there they are further transmitted via a high-voltage
line to the distant station.
It is also possible to connect the serial synchronous interface (SSI) of the PU3f module via a fibre
optic module (FOM) digital to the PowerLink PLC system or to an other SWT 3000 system.

The PU3 module can be expanded optionally by a submodule DLE for digital transmission paths
accommodating two digital line interfaces LID-1 and LID-2. These are used for transmitting the pro-
tection commands over a digital network (SDH/PDH). The LID can be connected also via a FOM
module and a FOBox to a multiplexer system.
