Midspan PoE
Midspan Power over Ethernet Hubs
Enterasys has entered into a reseller agreement with Microsemi for PowerDsine Midspan products that include support for Gigabit connectivity and High Power (30 watts) Power over Ethernet (PoE). All multi-port Midspans support SNMP management to allow for simple and efficient monitoring and control of the network devices, including tasks such as remote power-off/power-on, UPS power monitoring and web-based monitoring.
High Power PoE Midspans supply reliable, uninterrupted power to IP phones, 802.11n wireless LAN access points, IP cameras, and other Ethernet devices using existing LAN cable infrastructure. This technology, when used in conjunction with a centralized UPS, provides a cost-effective means to upgrade to PoE and ensures continuous operation during power failures, while eliminating the time and cost of installing separate power cabling.
Enterasys offers the following Midspan products as an effective means for customers to inject power into their LAN infrastructure:
- Single Port Gigabit PoE Midspan
- Single Port High Power (30W) Gigabit PoE Midspan
- 6 Port High Power, SNMP-managed Gigabit PoE Midspan
- 12 Port High Power, SNMP-managed Gigabit PoE Midspan
- 24 Port High Power, SNMP-managed Gigabit PoE Midspan
