3~12 watts

PoE Splitter

PoE Splitter split the PoE 56V DC over the Ethernet cable into 5/12V DC power

output. It frees the device deployment from restrictions due to power outlet

locations, which eliminate the costs for additional AC wiring and reduces the

installation time.

12~25 Watts

High Power PoE Splitter

High PoE Splitter split the PoE 56V DC over the Ethernet cable into 12/24V DC

power output. It frees the device deployment from restrictions due to power

outlet locations, which eliminate the costs for additional AC wiring and reduces

the installation time.

4.16.2 Power Configuration

In a power over Ethernet system, operating power is applied from a power source (PSU-power supply unit) over the LAN

infrastructure to powered devices (PDs), which are connected to ports. Under some conditions, the total output power required

by PDs can exceed the maximum available power provided by the PSU. The system may a prior be planed with a PSU capable

of supplying less power than the total potential power consumption of all the PoE ports in the system. In order to maintain the

majority of ports active, power management is implemented.

The PSU input power consumption is monitored by measuring voltage and current .The input power consumption is equal to the

system’s aggregated power consumption .The power management concept allows all ports to be active and activates additional

ports, as long as the aggregated power of the system is lower than the power level at which additional PDs cannot be

connected .When this value is exceeded, ports will be deactivated, according to user-defined priorities. The power budget is

managed according to the following user-definable parameters: maximum available power, ports priority, maximum allowable

power per port.

Reserved Power determined by

There are five modes for configuring how the ports/PDs may reserve power and when to shut down ports.

Classification mode

In this mode each port automatic determines how much power to reserve according to the class the connected PD belongs

to, and reserves the power accordingly. Four different port classes exist and one for 4, 7, 15.4 and 30.8 Watts.
