Hardware Overview
Connecting the Hardware
Typically, the PES1A/PESV1A is connected to a network via a hub, switch or router using standard
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
Power is supplied to your PES1A/PESV1A from PoE power source equipment (PSE), which must be installed within 100 meters of the converter. PSEs may be endspan or midspan devices. Endspan PSE devices may be switches or hubs with integrated PoE capability. Midspan PSE devices are dedicated, inline devices that are installed between your network switch and the PES1A/PESV1A.
For more information on PoE see Appendix C.
