Power over Internet splitter for reliable power distribution

May 2025 Electrical Power & Protection

A manufacturing facility requires a stable power supply for its wireless access points (APs) and IP cameras mounted across the factory floor. However, these devices do not support direct PoE input. By deploying the IPS-342P PoE Splitter from Vepac, the facility can efficiently convert PoE power from the network switch into 24 V DC output ensuring seamless connectivity without the need for additional power wiring. This reduces installation complexity, enhances reliability and optimises network performance for industrial automation and security systems.

Reliable power distribution is essential for uninterrupted operations in modern industrial environments. Industrial PoE splitters play a crucial role by converting Power over Ethernet (PoE) into stable DC power, enabling seamless integration of non-PoE devices in industrial networks. These devices ensure efficient power management while minimising additional wiring and installation complexity.

Upgrade your industrial network with the IPS-342P PoE Splitter designed to convert high-power PoE input efficiently into 12 V or 24 V DC output for seamless device integration. Engineered for rugged industrial environments, the IPS-342P ensures stable performance with advanced protection features, including short circuit protection (SCP), overload protection (OLP) and power isolation.
