RE: [smartBridges] POE, voltage range

[Jack Berridge]

Curious.  If you highly recommend using smartBridges power supply for smartBridges devices, why doesn't smartBridges have a power supply and PoE solution that works to the maximum Ethernet cable specs (~300 feet)?  Why even have the 12v power supply?  Why not have an 18v power supply that will work with the 50' or less cable runs as well as the longer cable runs?  At least for the outdoor (WISP type) solutions.  Other vendors we work with use the higher end (18v, even 24v) power supplies and it works for the short as well as the long runs.  It just seems that the 12v has caused your user community more problems which are resolved by going to 15v or 18v solutions......why not have an 18v be the normal (default) solution for outdoor smartBridges solutions?

Thanks.

If you are using any third party power supply, please use the regulated DC voltage power supply.   We are highly recommended to use our smartBridges               Power supply for our devices.  If the Ethernet cable length exceeds more than 50 meters, then only 18V is recommended.

Dynamic power sounds intriguing.

Thank you.   I have no fears of even reaching 15V, but wanted to make sure that even if somehow things got to 15.5 or 16, it would be ok.

 

Thanks again.

We recommend 18V as max athough can be higher. Pls refer to this link for more details. http://www.smartbridges.com/new/products/ps.php

 

We are also in the development stage of having a dyanmic power supply that can automatically adjsut the power supply based on the cable sense.

What's the upper limit for voltage, for POE on the ABO and APPO?

 

Thanks
