| Power over LAN Active Splitter
For use with Axis, Nokia and Panasonic products. Converts the voltage of -48V
DC running on the converged line into a voltage of +12V DC, according to the
end point device specifications. Power over LAN active splitters enables easy
integration of the Power over LAN technology into legacy equipment. Using the
same infrastructure, and without making any modifications to the end points,
already designed devices, such as Wireless LAN access points, Web cameras or
IP telephone sets become Power over LAN enabled when connected to the active
splitter. Power over LAN is PowerDsine's unique technology accommodating data
signals and power lines, running together over the same Ethernet twisted pair
cable, from the central Ethernet switch up to the end device. Implementation
of this technology simplifies the network infrastructure significantly, eliminating
the need of power cables for all the IP devices; these devices will be powered
centrally, receiving the power over the Ethernet cables. This change in the
network requires the addition of a central power source and modification to
enable the IP devices to receive power coming over the Ethernet cables.
- Separates the converged
data and power lines into two distinctive lines, connecting to the Ethernet
device according to the original design.
- Saves time and money
in installation of Ethernet networks and promotes the benefits of using one
central source to power all the IP devices in the network.
- Simplifies the modification
of a device to be Power over LAN enabled, saving all the risks involved in
redesign of the power stage in this device by a simple add on box.
- Ensures full compliance
with the IEEE 802.3af standard of Power over LAN technology, as a product
of PowerDsine, which keeps its products updated to reflect the latest decisions
made at the standard committee.
