PoE-switch leverer 60W til op til fire devices

Microsemi introducerer 4+1 udendørs Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) switch, der gør det muligt at forbinde fire powered devices med op til 60W per device (in english).

Microsemi has announced the availability of its PDS-104GO outdoor Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) switch, expanding the company’s PoE product offering to enable the connection of four powered devices to a network.

The switch delivers 60 watts (W) of power per device over standard Ethernet cabling to outdoor devices such as wireless local-area network access points (WLAN), Internet protocol (IP) cameras, point-to-point microwave radio and small cells - and is ideal for outdoor deployments in several industries including education, transportation, and government. 

- We are pleased to offer Microsemi’s first 4+1 port PoE switch with a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) uplink, providing customers with greater flexibility, longer networks, plug-and-play installation and the needed outdoor functionality including extended temperature range , IP 66 and integrated surge protection, says Sani Ronen, director of product management for Microsemi’s PoE systems.

- As a leader in PoE technology, the PDS-104GO demonstrates our continued commitment to innovation by offering a compelling and highly integrated solution for IP-based outdoor installations that brings new capabilities to the market. 

The PDS-104GO addresses the increasing power needs of outdoor PoE applications which are connected to several million ports per year, with an estimated serviceable available market (SAM) of approximately $300 million per year according to market research firm Infonetics.

With simple and straightforward deployment, the IEEE802.3at-compliant switch is IP66-rated and can be installed in outdoor environments without the need to open the unit during installation. The switch delivers PoE power up to 60 W per device and enables remote monitoring and control of the device’s status, including remote reset. The PDS-104GO also extends the reach between the switch and powered devices (PDs) by an additional 100 meters, to a maximum of 200 meters, a major benefit for many applications. In addition, the device offers lightening protection to the switch itself as well as to the indoor network.
