New and emerging power solutions offer systems integrators better ways to streamline access control installations while reducing costs, increasing system capacity, and minimizing physical space requirements. One such solution is the latest IEEE Power over Ethernet (PoE) standard, 802.3bt PoE, which grants systems installers with the necessary resources to optimize installations.
802.3bt PoE revolutionizes the power available on network infrastructure. Also known as 4PPoE or 4-Pair PoE, this new standard utilizes all four pairs of wires of an Ethernet cable to deliver a significant boost in power, providing up to 90W per port, a notable increase over previous PoE standards of just 30W. 802.3bt also supports multiple PoE classes and is backward compatible for use with older devices. In short, 802.3bt switches, injectors and media converters can distribute more power to more devices, including high demand products such as multi-sensor IP PTZ cameras, IR Illuminators, and access control hardware.
