PoE fibre transmission

KBC Networks has added PoE (Power over Ethernet) to its network transmission range. The first of the new products is a fully ruggedised 10/100 Ethernet media converter with PoE+ that conforms to the higher power specifications necessary for PTZ and dome cameras. The KBC FTLS1 is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3at specification and acts as a PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment) providing 25.5W at 48Vdc. The unit supports transmission of an Ethernet channel over either one or two, multi-mode or single-mode optic
