Post subject: PoE 802.3af connection speed
|
I'm trying to determine whether using PoE 802.3af to power a ptz IP camera reduces the connection speed of the camera down to 10mb from 100mb? In other words, does using one of the twisted pairs for DC reduce the number of twisted pairs avail for data since 100mb needs all 4 pairs? Or does the standard simply piggyback DC and data down one of the twisted pairs?
Thanks

The IEEE 802.3af standard uses the same "data" pairs as ethernet, leaving the "spare" pairs free. This PoE adds DC power to the data pairs using signal transformers, and pickes off power at the far end the same way. A comprehensive set of technical standards for Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) and Powered Devices (PD) create an "idiot proof" system protected from shorted wiring, polarity reversal, or accidentally plugging in non-PoE equipment. IEEE 802.3af is technically complex and best implemented with power management chips specially designed for the purpose, supplied by Dallas, Maxim, Linear Technology, Texas Instruments, and others, that are intended to be embedded into the PoE devices themselves.
The new IEEE 802.3af standard alternatively allows the "spare" wire pairs to be energized, to be compatible with both types of wiring. You may mix 802.3af with older or homebrew PoE devices, but the result may not be "idiot proof". If your mixed network has only PoE sources that are IEEE 802.3af compliant, your mixed network is pretty safe from damage, but older devices may or may not operate correctly. This mixed PoE allows brands to migrate to the common standard.

FYI
10mb and 100mb use 2 pairs each [4] there are 4 spare for power or 1000mb if you use it

thanks ak357!!
for additing the info...
Power added over ethernet dosen't make any diffrence in terms of speed!!
right??

Yes and no. The short answer is no. The slightly longer answer is that as long as your equipment is putting out fairly clean power you won't introduce cross talk which would slow the speed of the connection down.
