PoE module

Started by John Larkin February 10, 2023
Looks like a lot of people make a SIP-packaged PoE power module.

and they look to be approximately drop-in compatible. They get one or
two pairs of DC from the ethernet connector and make isolated DC out,
from 3.3 to 24 volts in various versions.

So it could be a plug-in option for a little box that otherwise runs
from a 24 volt wart.

Price is roughly $10. The cheapest Alibaba unit is around $3!

It's a fairly wide-range DC/DC converter, but at least one (Ubiquiti) PoE injector in my junk box sources 24VDC, and that's out of its (36V-57V) range. These specs are reminiscent of the telecom style converters used with 48V systems.

DIY output filtering, and no RF noise or EMI specifications. No shielding is apparent either.

Adding some beads and caps would be no big deal. If I allow optional wart DC power, they'd be there anyhow.

Well, it is a bare PCB. I'll put it on a board in an aluminum box.

What do you do when one fails a few years from now? Buy a hundred up front?

Sadly, there are many things that "deliver power over an ethernet cable" that are erroneously labeled as "PoE". The actual standards are pretty comprehensive and tend to cover the "real" use cases, well -- including protecting against non-PD devices being connected to a PoE-enabled drop. Increasingly, I see people moving away from midspan injectors to endspan support. It's not hard to design a universal PD configuration that will tolerate both A and B configurations as well as polarity independence. (This because the PSE has the final word on how it will supply power) And, develop the supplies that you *actually* need in your PD.
