Altronix NetWay4ESK midspan injector kit includes a NetWay4ES 4-Port PoE/PoE+ switch and NetWay1D midspan injector to provide power & ethernet connection to PoE approved connected devices (cameras / edge devices). This midspan injector kit is capable of powering connected devices or cameras up to 100 metres from the unit. The NetWay4ES is a 4-port managed PoE/PoE+ switch ideal for installation at the IDF (Intermediate Distribution Frame) and offers system expansion by accommodating up to 4 IP devices or cameras over a single CAT-5 or higher structured cable. Altronix NetWay4ESK midspan injector kit provides a maximum power of 60W over ethernet at 10 / 100 Mbps speed, and allows auto detection & protection of legacy non-PoE cameras & other devices with low voltage connection, thereby protecting sensitive devices from high power damage. It also facilitates shutdown of spring terminals manually and is equipped with 3 wire grounded line detachable cord for added safety. Altronix NetWay4ESK midspan injector kit comes equipped with LED indicators to show the IP link status and operates at relative humidity of 85% (+/- 5%). It allows operation at altitudes ranging between - 304.8 & 2000 m. The NetWay4ES PoE/PoE+ switch can be operated from - 40 C to 75 degrees Celcius at 60W, while the NetWay1D midspan injector is capable of being operated from - 30 to 50 degrees C & - 30 to 40 degrees C at 30W & 60W, respectively.
Uses:
Altronix NetWay4ESK midspan injector kit is ideal for providing power & ethernet connection to PoE compliant connected devices (cameras / edge devices) in research facilities, offices and manufacturing plants.
Features:
- Altronix NetWay4ESK midspan injector kit is suitable for providing power & ethernet connection to PoE compliant connected devices (cameras / edge devices).
- It is capable of powering connected devices or cameras up to 100 metres from the unit.
- Altronix midspan injector kit allows auto detection & protection of legacy non-PoE cameras or edge devices.
- Altronix NetWay4ESK midspan injector kit provides a maximum power of 60W over ethernet at 10 / 100 Mbps speed.
- Altronix midspan injector kit is equipped with 3 wire grounded line detachable cord for added safety.
- This injector kit is UL & cULCE listed and CE compliant.
- Altronix midspan injectors are also available in various port configurations on Raptor Supplies.
Compatible Accessories:
- Altronix CAT5e: These Altronix cables are designed for the brand's NetWay1BT PoE injector to transfer data (audio, visual and text) with high speeds.
Standards and Approvals:
- Altronix NetWay4ESK midspan injector kit is CE certified and UL & cUL listed for ensuring quality performance and user safety.
Installation:
- Fix rubber pads to NetWay1E for shelf installation and plug the grounded AC line cord into the IEC 320 connector of the NetWay1E unit. Now plug the unit into a reliable earth grounded socket while using multiple units. Ensure that the sum of the individual nameplate ratings must not exceed the supply circuit rating.
- Connect the structured cable from the UL listed video server or ethernet switch to RJ45 jack marked [IN] on NetWay1E.
- PoE ON LED illuminates to indicate that PoE device is turned On. Now connect a device which will deliver a low voltage trigger input to marked terminals [--- PoE Shutdown +].
- When voltage is applied, the PoE output drops to zero volts and when the voltage is removed from thePoE shutdown terminals, the PoE output will deliver power to PoE compliant devices (normal condition).
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. Can we connect any PoE device to the NetWay4ESK power injector?
A. Altronix NetWay4ESK is compatible with PoE devices requiring power supply ratings up to 60W.
Q. How much time does it take the NetWay4ESK power injector to return to normal operation from PoE shutdown mode?
A. It takes around 4 seconds to return to normal operation after PoE shutdown mode is deactivated.
Q. What is the difference between a splitter & a midspan injector?
A. The difference lies in the fact that the PoE injector supplies power to the PoE equipment that receives information / data from existing non-PoE switches, whereas a splitter splits the power from the data & feeds it to a separate input of a non-PoE compliant device.
Q. What is a midspan power injector?
A. Midspan power injectors are PoE devices that connect a non-PoE-capable switch or data server with a PoE-capable device (such as an IP camera). These injectors add (or inject) power to an ethernet or data cable for powering PoE devices without connecting each device with a separate power supply.
Q. How far can power injectors work?
A. A PoE injector can transfer both power and data to powered devices at a maximum distance of 100 metres. The transfer range can be extended by using repeater modules. Multiple repeaters can be connected for a maximum range of 600 m to transfer power & data simultaneously.
Q. What are the advantages of midspan power injectors?
A. PoE injectors or midspan power injectors deliver power & data to PoE devices with greater reliability, faster transmission speed and better security as compared to WiFi enabled cameras. These PoE injectors also reduce the wiring associated with directly powered devices.
