FREMONT, CA (July 27, 2011)
— Phihong, a global leader in Power-over-Ethernet solutions, has developed a new midspan product that features a wall plug for AC power. Designated the POE16R-1AF, the 15.4W wall plug adapter is fully compliant with the IEEE802.3af standard and may be used for a variety
of applications including wireless and Bluetooth access points, IP telephones, or IP print servers.
“Our newest PoE product provides a fully compliant IEEE802.3 midspan but the
interchangeable plugs make it the most cost-effective solution available,” said Keith Hopwood, vice president of marketing for Phihong USA. “The pervasive solutions available right now
require line cords, which cost up to $2.50 each in addition to the midspan. With the POE16R, the midspan with the U.S.-compliant clip is less than $10 when purchase in OEM quantities.”
The POE16R-1AF features over-voltage, over-current, over-temperature and short-circuit protection and conforms to UL60950-2. The wall plug unit features a single bi-color LED that is used for troubleshooting diagnostics and may operate at 10Mb or 100Mb Base-T data rates.
The unit is designed for use with the Phihong R-Series of interchangeable clips which are available for North America, Argentina, Australia, Brazil, China, continental Europe, India, the United Kingdom, and South Korea, as well as an IEC320 C8 clip for use with a standard 2-wire C7 line cord as a desktop-style adapter.
The midspan measures just 80mm by 45mm by 33mm and weighs just 200 grams. Specifications including product datasheets are available at http://www.midspans.com/pages/15w/POE16R-1AF_15.4w_wall_plug_midspan.php. Pricing for the wall plug
adapter starts at $9.77 in OEM quantities; interchangeable AC clips are sold separately.
