Power over Ethernet Overview
With the PoE Option for TS-3000i:
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) is a network standard based on IEEE
802.3af that provides a means of delivering power to devices connected
to a LAN. This technology eliminates AC electrical wiring, wall
transformers, allows centralized UPS backup, and is compatible with
both powered and non-powered Ethernet devices.
In addition to providing time synchronization and control over Ethernet, a
PoE enabled Ethernet cable can provide power to the TS-3000i clock.
This allows greater flexibility for placing clocks and, in most cases,
significantly decreases installation costs. The Amano TS-3000i clocks
utilize the spare wires from the Cat 5 Ethernet cable to provide power
over Ethernet. The TS-3000i clocks will work with older non-standard
and passive power sources, and newer auto-sensing PoE switches and
mid-span power injectors. Power-over-Ethernet begins with an Ethernet
power source such as a PoE compatible switch or a mid-span power
"injector". These devices insert power onto the Ethernet cable. The
power source is typically installed in the "wiring closet" near the Ethernet
switch or hub.
The TS-3000i clocks may be ordered as PoE compatible, or converted at
a later time by adding the PoE option kit. PoE is able to supply a
maximum of about 15 watts of power over the Ethernet cable.
