Midspan supplies larger PoE loads
Phihong's 30W one-port midspan from is now being implemented into high power applications that implement the IEEE802.11n standard.
Quad-output supply covers the field
The PSF-149 is an enclosed, quad-output, 150W, CE-compliant supply designed to meet a variety of applications.
Open-frame supply keeps a low profile
A new open frame power supply is said to have the lowest useable profile available on the market.
"Along with the new standard, customers are looking for equipment that is interoperable across multiple vendor platforms", said Keith Hopwood, Vice President of Marketing for Phihong USA.
"Our 30W one-port midspan provides power-over-Ethernet technology that does just that".
Phihong is a member of the new IEEE802.3at task force, which was formed to increase the power levels distributed via Ethernet to at least 45W.
When implemented as a standard, the PoEPlus initiative will more than double the wattage available to powered devices.
The 30W midspan features diagnostic LEDs and is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3af standard in detection, disconnect and voltage control.
The device is also Gigabit-compatible.
DC output voltage for the one-port midspan is 56V with accurate overload detection to 0.55A.
The outputs are equipped with short circuit and overload protection, and the output can be shorted permanently without damage.
AC input voltage range is 90 to 264V AC, with voltage rating from 100 to 240V AC and AC input frequency from 47 to 63Hz.
Power-over-Ethernet allows both power and data to be carried over a single Ethernet cable, enabling a device to operate entirely from the power it receives through the data cable.
This eliminates the need for additional wall outlets, so phones can be moved around offices without costly and time-consuming rewiring.
Phihong's new 30W one port device has been tested for compatibility and broadband data handling capability by UNH IOL.
Safety approvals for the 30W one-port midspan include cUL/UL, TUV and CE.
Phihong is an expert at international safety agency approvals and can offer almost any international safety or EMC compliance standard.
Typical pricing for Phihong's 30W one-port midspan is $25 each in OEM quantities.
