Power Inserters

The PulsAR-24027 Wireless Ethernet Bridge gets its power over the Cat5 Ethernet cable.  The Power Inserter Unit is a small indoor module that injects DC power into the unused lines of the Ethernet Cat5 cable .  There are two models (see figures), one for operation from an AC source (110-240 VAC), and the other for operation from a DC source (8 to 28 VDC).  If your DC supply is –48 VDC we also carry a DC/DC converter that you can use in conjunction with the DC Power inserter.

The Standard AC Power Inserter Unit (PWI-103) includes a power supply for connection to an AC outlet (110-240 VAC), two RJ45 connectors and a bi-color LED.  The two RJ-45 connectors are labeled “To LAN” and “To Radio”. 

The DC Power Inserter Unit has two RJ45 connectors labeled “Data In”, “P+Data Out”, a green LED, and a 10 ft pigtail cable for connection to your DC supply voltage or the DC/DC converter.

The standard PulsAR-24027 Wireless Ethernet Bridge is shipped with the AC power inserter.  Please contact Afar if you would like to substitute the DC Power Inserter.
