Phihong Develops SNMP-Capable 8-Port Midspan for SOHO Applications
Gigabit compatibility for high-power PoE security applications...
FREMONT, C.A.-- (April 2, 2008) -- Phihong USA, a global leader in Power-over-Ethernet solutions, has developed a low-cost, 8-port midspan that is Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) -capable. Designated the POE125U enables remote monitoring without the need for on-site personnel while lowering the cost of implementing PoE for single points of backup in small office (SOHO) environments as well as wireless access points and IP cameras for security applications.
"PoE makes physical support easier and more affordable," said Keith Hopwood, vice president of marketing for Phihong USA. "With Phihong's PoE solutions designed specifically for SOHO applications, phones, access points and security cameras can be easily moved and added since they are working off existing data cables, saving a company time, hassle and money. The addition of SNMP capability allows for remote camera monitoring and reset without additional personnel, ideal for such an environment."
Because it is fully compliant with the IEEE802.3af standard in detection, disconnect, and voltage control, the Gigabit-compatible 8-port POE125U midspan provides a cost-effective method for powering VoIP phone systems and multi-camera security systems. This midspan provides up to 15.4W of power per port, requires no power management and one UPS keeps phones and cameras working even when the power is cut.
Phihong midspans are designed for Gigabit systems to enable high power for 10/100/1000 Base-T networks. The POE125U midspan provides over-voltage, over-current, and short-circuit protection to prevent permanent damage after a shortage.
Pricing for Phihong's POE125U-8N-port midspan is $375 each and is available for purchase at www.phihong.com/midspans. Each midspan is 8.9 inches X 7.8 inches X 1.75 inches.
Phihong is one of the leading suppliers of power solutions to networking OEMs, including power supplies, adapters and Power-over-Ethernet products.
With global sales for 2008 expected to exceed $550 million, Phihong has engineering and manufacturing facilities in North and South America, Taiwan and mainland China.
