![[Add To Cart]](/images/icons/add2cart_large.gif){kind=icon}
PowerDsine PD-601 family of Power over Ethernet Active Splitters enables easy integration of the Power over Ethernet 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 Ethernet enabled when connected to the active splitter.
PowerDsine PD-601 converts the voltage of -48V DC running on the converged line into a voltage of +18V or +48V DC, according to the end point device specifications, supporting unit detection as defined by the IEEE 802.3af standard. Power over Ethernet 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.
Features and Benefits
- 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 Ethernet enabled, saving all the risks involved in redesign of the power stage in this device by a simple add on box
- As a products of PowerDsine, which keeps it's products updated to reflect the latest decision made at the standard committee, the PD- 601 Power over Ethernet Active Splitter is designed to ensure full compliance with the IEEE802.3af standard of Power over Ethernet technology.
