3 About the Product
3.1 About CEDD
®
CEDD
®
is an innovative contactless energy and communication technology. Energy and data transport are
combined in a two-wire cable system, a basestation, and contactless user points. With this structured cable
concept, lighting on airfields can easily be installed or replaced without making electrical contact with the
power or data cable.
The CEDD
®
system has been specifically designed for the operation of Airfield Ground Lighting (AGL)
systems on airports, with the highest possible reliability.
3.2 About the CEDD
®
HPS Basestation
The CEDD
®
HPS Basestation is a key component of the CEDD
®
AGL system.
The CEDD
®
HPS Basestation distributes energy to the CEDD
®
AGL LED fixtures and communicates
bidirectionally by means of the CEDD
®
cable. Bidirectionally means that the CEDD
®
HPS Basestation sends
assignments to the fixtures and the fixtures send information about their status back to the CEDD
®
HPS
Basestation. Each fixture is connected to the CEDD
®
cable without galvanic contact.
HPS means High Power System. The CEDD
®
HPS Basestation has been designed to supply a power up to
2.3 kW to the connected circuit.
The CEDD
®
HPS Basestation is typically controlled remotely but for maintenance purposes can also be
operated locally.

3.2.1 Position in the CEDD
®
AGL System
A typical CEDD
®
AGL system consists of a CEDD
®
HPS Basestation that provides power to the CEDD
®
AGL LED fixtures, and bidirectional communication to all the CEDD
®
AGL LED fixtures connected to the
CEDD
®
cable. A CEDD
®
HPS Terminator at the end of each CEDD
®
cable matches the characteristic
impedance of the CEDD
®
cable with the connected CEDD
®
AGL LED fixtures.
