the need for power outlets!
What is Power over LAN?
Also known as:
PoL
Power over Ethernet - PoE
Inline Power
Active Ethernet
Technology for combining Power & Data over standard LAN
cabling infrastructure
Safe, reliable way to save installation costs
Standard solution – IEEE 802.3af compliant
300ft (100m) range
What is Power over LAN?
Power (48V, 15.4W) is only activated for authenticated
compatible terminals.
Compatible with standard Category 5 cabling
infrastructure – no need to replace cables, patch-panels,
RJ-45 outlets, etc.
Safe solution – Power is automatically blocked to legacy
Ethernet devices (i.e. laptops, NICs, switches, etc.)
Systems are protected against overloads and shortcircuits
Axis/ PowerDsine Power over LAN™ Solutions
• 12,6 & 1 port Mid-spans – for all types of installations
• 1U rack mount for 12 & 6 port versions
• 802.3af compatible – future proof solution
Powering 12V Network Cameras
• Use the 12V Active Splitter with cameras or
equipment that requires 12V, and is not yet POL
enabled.

The Power over LAN Advantage for Network Cameras
Simpler, more Cost effective Installation
Removal of the AC outlets dramatically reduces cost of the
deployment.
No need for expensive electricians, deployment by IT
personnel.
No adaptors – higher reliability of installation
Fast installation time and integration of cameras
Simplified site planning, enabling easy addition or relocation of
a camera to get complete coverage.
The Power over LAN Advantage for Network Cameras
A Robust Security Network – a Must
Only a port with POL enabled devices will be powered
Will not damage non-POL devices such as NIC Cards, LAN Hubs
and other peripherals
Eliminates accidental disconnection of Power to camera
Better survivability in the tough industrial floor
Can allow closing of the camera in an isolating box
Overload & short circuit protections
The Power over LAN Advantage for Network Cameras
A backup Security Network – a Must
Continues operation during power failures by simple UPS backup
of the POL Midspan.
Utilize existing network UPS

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Axis Products can the Power over LAN midspan
work with?
2100, 2110, 2120, 2420, 2400, 2401 and 9010.
Can devices be damaged by connecting to the Power
Hub?
No, only ports that terminate with PoE enabled devices will
be powered. Therefore there is no need to manage
individual cables or jacks.
No concerns about employees carelessly swapping cables
No damage to Ethernet switch in case of input/output
careless swap
No damage to legacy products on the network
