iMcV-PSE-MidSpan: Deliver Both Power and Data To The Networks' Edge
Connecting and powering small devices at the edge of a wired network infrastructure becomes increasingly important to LANs/MANs as they add Wi-Fi access points, webcams, entry control systems, and other IP devices. Sometimes, the most optimal location for one of these devices is too far from an AC or DC power source. Spending a lot of money to rewire electric cabling isn’t the alternative, nor is moving the location of the access point, or sacrificing it altogether.
IMC Networks' iMcV-PSE-MidSpan provides an important and cost-effective solution. The PSE-MidSpan delivers data and power to Ethernet devices over a single Ethernet cable, using Power over Ethernet (PoE), compliant with IEEE 802.3af. It removes the burden of needing a nearby power outlet and allows greater network flexibility.
The PSE-MidSpan’s small size and easy to use current and power troubleshooting features make this a solution that is not only easy to use but easy to install in out of the way spaces. Configuration is also made easy, when installed in an IMC Networks managed chassis, with SNMP management. Most importantly, though, the PSE-MidSpan’s transmission of power and data, up to 100 meters (328 feet) over standard Ethernet cabling, is achieved with virtually no reduction in throughput.
