In addition to transmitting network data, a PoE Switch has a built-in Power over Ethernet injector to supply up to 100W Power over Ethernet (PoE) to standards-based 802.3af, 802.3at and 802.3bt compliant devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points. When connecting network devices, the switch will detect whether they are POE-compatible and automatically supply power. Using a PoE Switch saves on installation and maintenance costs by eliminating the need to install multiple pieces of equipment, additional electrical wires, and outlets.
Perle PoE Switches are classified as Layer 2 Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE). The industrial design of a Perle IDS PoE Switch, and all internal components, make it ideal for use in harsh environments subject to vibrations, extreme temperature fluctuations from -40C to 75C, and shocks such as:
- industrial and factory automation
- outdoor applications
- rail and intelligent transportation systems (ITSs),
- marine
- oil and gas
- mining
Perle IDS Managed Switches have enterprise-grade features that include PROFINET and Modbus TCP Protocol Support, MRP IEC 62439-2 Ring protocol for <10ms recovery time, STP/RSTP/MSTP, IGMP Snooping, QoS, VLAN, TACACS+, RADIUS, IEEE 802.1X authentication, SSH, SNMPv3, HTTPS, and IEEE 1588 PTP.
