Power Over A-Net (PoA)
To use Power Over A-Net with the F6 Modular I/O Frame, the Aviom POA80 power supply is required. This power
supply has been tested and approved for use with the F6 Modular I/O Frame.
Power Over A-Net only works with A-Net Port B on the F6 I/O Frame. Do not connect any other power supply to
the A-Net inputs of the F6.
The POA80 power supply accepts one EtherCon RJ45 Cat-5e or Cat-6 A-Net input coming from a Pro64 device
and outputs the Pro64 A-Net data plus the DC voltage required to power the F6 Modular I/O Frame.
When using the F6 Modular I/O Frame with an approved Power Over A-Net (PoA) power supplies, DO NOT
patch the Cat-5 connection between the Power Over A-Net (PoA) device and the F6 Modular I/O Frame
unit with power applied. Power down the (PoA) power supply first and wait until all of its LED indicators
are off.
