PLANET FTP-802 - Manual (Page 7)


1. Overview
Thank you for purchasing PLANET FTP-80X family 10/100Mbps
Ethernet Twisted pair to 100Base-FX Fiber-optic PoE Bridge
Converter. This converter is used to convert one type media
signal to other type equivalent that allows two type segments
connect easily, efficiently and inexpensively. The converter
provides Power over Ethernet power injector function which is
able to drive one IEEE 802.3af compliant powered devices.
About the Power over Ethernet Injector
The FTP-80X is an IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet Injector
that provide DC 48V over Ethernet cables. The FTP-80X IEEE
802.3af Power over Ethernet Injector inserts DC Voltage into
Cat.5 cable, allowing the cable between the Injector (FTP-
80X) and PoE PD (Powered Device) to transfer data and power
simultaneously. The maximum distance between the Injector
(FTP-80x) and PoE PD is 100 meters. With FTP-80x installed,
it is combines the Ethernet digital data with power over the
twisted pair cables as an IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet
Injector. And the IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet splitter shall
separate the digital data and the power into two outputs.
With IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet devices installed, the
system administrator only have to use a single RJ-45 Ethernet
cable to carries both power and data to each devices. Besides,
to connect through FTP-80x and PoE PD, you could also have
following benefit that, cost saving, easy for networking planning
and higher reliability. What’s more, upon any IEEE 802.3af
devices installed, the FTP-80X or PD all can make the connection
while migrating and the Ethernet digital packets, such as
connecting the FTP-80X to an IEEE 802.3af complied devices,
AP or IP Camera.
