For secure serial to Ethernet connectivity applications the utilize Power over Ethernet (PoE) sources, the IOLAN SDG PoE Device Server is the most advanced compact product available on the market today. Delivering high performance in a compact size, an IOLAN SDG P offers extensive security, flexibility and next generation IPv6 technology making it ideal for applications that require remote device/console management, data capture or monitoring.

The IOLAN SDG P Device Server has full PoE support and operates as a Powered Device under IEEE 802.3af supporting end-span and mid-span power sources (PSE). Some other serial device servers that claim compliancy with 803.2af are in fact restricted to using mid-span power sources - buyer beware.

The IOLAN SDG P also has Inrush Current Protection to protect the device from input current rushes that may occur during power up. With this protection the IOLAN SDG PoE Device Server begins with a low current draw stage to protect the power sourcing device (PSD), and then switches to a high current stage allowing the IOLAN SDG P to draw its required power up a maximum 12.95 watts.

The IOLAN SDG PoE Device Server is ideal for organizations that need to deploy equipment in locations that are difficult or too costly to have separate AC power installed such as ceilings, walls and kiosks.
