Phihong PoE splitter

Phihong has developed a Power-over-Ethernet splitter that provides 12 V at 1.75 A for powering heaters or illuminators.

Designated the POE21-120F, the gigabit-compatible device works with any ultra PoE midspan, a power solution for a surveillance camera and heaters or illuminators through a single Cat5 cable.

The splitter taps some power and passes the rest and data to the camera. The power is then converted from the PoE source to a regulated 12 VDC source.

The splitter is designed to be mounted adjacent to the camera and offers the same detection and overload features specified in IEEE 802.3af standards.

Available in a non-vented case with 10Base-T, 100Base-T and 1000Base-T data rates and a UNH IOL test report, the splitter has an LED to indicate it has power. The device also has full OCP, OTP and OVP protection, is isolated from the PoE source by 1500 VAC and meets UL LPS and SELV output requirements.
