Advantech has launched the EKI-2701PSI Industrial Power over Ethernet (PoE) splitter, which offers the convenience of a single cable to supply both power and data to connected devices and equipment.
PoE (also known as IEEE 802.3af) is a relatively new technology to industrial and plant-floor environments, but has proven itself in commercial and enterprise applications over the past several years. Using the unused wires in a 10/100 Base-T cable, or by overlaying power on the data connections, PoE supplies 15,4 W of power at 48 V d.c.
This technology is useful for powering network devices and equipment, where it is inconvenient, expensive or unfeasible to supply power separately. Connected between a standard Ethernet device and a PoE powered connection, the EKI-2701PSI operates as a splitter, separating the PoE connection into a standard RJ45 Ethernet port and a removable screw terminal block capable of supplying almost 13 W at 24 V d.c.
Packaged in a thin DIN-rail mount chassis, the EKI-2701PSI can be used where panel space is limited. It supports both standard 10/100 Base-T and gigabit 1000 Base-T connections. Rugged in design, it is suitable for demanding industrial applications with 4000 V d.c. Ethernet ESD protection, 3000 V d.c. power line surge (EFT) protection, power isolation and output power short circuit protection. To maximise uptime in unattended and remote locations, it features an extended operating temperature range of -40°C to 75°C.
