Power Over Ethernet Interoperability Guide

Power over Ethernet Interoperability demonstrates how to securely transmit DC power over an actual data network cabling structure in a way that separate AC electrical wiring is not required to power up devices connected to the network.

With a focus on cost-effective unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cables, this book presents proven methods for creating reliable Power over Ethernet (PoE) equipment and ensuring that it works efficiently.

Details on the IEEE 802.3af/at standards and how different devices can operate from PoE are also contained in this useful resource.

Coverage includes:

• The evolution of PoE
• Overview of PoE implementations
• Detection
• Classification
• Inrush and power-up
• Operation
• Maintain power and disconnect
• PoE state-machine diagrams
• Magnetics
• Isolation, PCB design, and safety
• Surge testing and protection
• Lab skills, thermal management, and decoupling
• N-pair power delivery systems
• Auxiliary power and flyback design
