Power over LAN Active Splitter, enables fast and easy integration of Power over LAN technology

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 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.

As PowerDsine is the founding member and an active participant in the IEEE 802.3af standard of Power over LAN task force, PowerDsine is committed to be fully compliant with this standard, thus keeping its products updated to reflect the latest decisions made in the standard.

The decisions of this committee will have direct implications on hardware changes to all Ethernet devices in terms of the power input stage of the Ethernet device. This task is not easy for any Ethernet device manufacturer to implement and has its risks especially when releasing a product during this period when the standard is still evolving. PowerDsine's active splitter prevents a need for manufacturers to alter existing products.

Features:
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 reflect the latest decisions made at the standard committee
