RS Components introduces new Power over Ethernet injectors

June 2019 Electrical Power & Protection

RS Components has announced availability of a new selection of Power over Ethernet (PoE) single-port mid-span power injectors manufactured by Phihong, a leader in advanced power solutions and a specialist in PoE technology.

Designed to deliver increased flexibility, PoE technology integrates power and data over an Ethernet cable. By integrating power into a standard LAN infrastructure, the technology can enable highly scalable and flexible networking, enabling the placement of powered network devices where they are needed and not necessarily near a power source. PoE technology targets an extensive series of applications and enables power to be supplied to devices such as IP telephones, security cameras, IP print servers and wireless LAN access points including Bluetooth and WiMax.

Midspan power injectors deliver additional power capability and can be used in combination with either a non-PoE switch or a PoE switch already in place in a network that is potentially operating at full capacity. Midspan solutions can cost substantially less than a new PoE-enabled switch, and come in single or multi-port options.

Offering a wide selection of power ratings from15.4-60 W, the Phihong PoE midspan power injectors also feature: compliance with either IEEE802.3AF, AT or BT, depending on the selected model; Gigabit Ethernet compatibility; universal input from 90-264 VAC and protection features including over current and over voltage.
