PoEp minimum voltage
Let us look on this issue under another angle assume minimum load need to be delivered to PD by four pair is 40W
Power dissipation on a cables for 51V PSE will be 2.45W less then for 44V
Advantages of higher voltage is increase with increasing power level
| 44V | 51V |
|
Pd power | 40W | 40W |
|
|
|
|
|
Current per pair | 0.54A | 0.44A |
|
|
|
|
|
Power dissipation | 7.3W | 4.85W |
|
on a cables (4P) |
|
|
|
PSE power | 47.52W | 44.88W |
|
|
|
|
|
System efficiency | 0.84 | 0.89 |
|
for ~500W PSE PS |
