6.2 Power Connections

WES2HT units support both PoE and non-PoE power configurations.

6.2.1 Power Injector Module for the non-PoE configuration

WES2HT units are supplied with a mid-span Power Injector Module (PIM) and a standard
24Vdc, 500mA Power Supply Unit, however, they can be bypassed when connecting
directly from a IEEE 802.3af PSE device (section 6.2.2 below).

Note:

The Power Injector Modules (PIM) are not weatherproof units and must be

protected from moisture.

For extreme temperature conditions there is also a KBC Networks Industrial DIN Rail
power supply available, part number MDR-20-24. These units provide 24W at 24Vdc.
These units need to be purchased separately, for further details please contact KBC
Networks.

6.2.2 Alternative Power Option for the WES2HT

The WES2HT units are capable of being IEEE 802.3af Powered Devices (PD) ie. they can
also be powered from a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) such as an Ethernet switch
which provides power on the Ethernet cable. There are a number of different Ethernet
switches options with PoE available from KBC Networks, these can be purchased
separately. Please contact KBC Networks for further information.
