Würth Elektronik MID-POE Power over Ethernet transformers

Würth Elektronik has expanded its MID-POE Power over Ethernet transformer series to include PoE++. The SMT transformers are suitable for flyback or active clamp forward power supplies that comply with the IEEE 802.3bt (4-pair Power over Ethernet/4PPoE, also known as PoE++) standard. The 10 latest transformers can provide an output power of up to 95 W.

Demand for more power in Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) devices has risen due to the advancements in smart and IoT (Internet of Things) applications. In response to this demand, Würth Elektronik expanded the MID-POE series for IEEE 802.3bt Type 3 (60 W) and Type 4 (90 W) devices.

The latest transformers utilise the low-profile EFD20 and EFD25 packages and offer high power densities over a wide range of common PoE output voltages. The series is suitable for devices such as videoconferencing systems, automation control systems, smart IP cameras and more.
