The DWL-P1012 Power over Ethernet Midspan injects power into data-carrying
Ethernet cabling. The Midspan will add power to 12 ports respectively in a
10/100BASE-TX Ethernet network, over TIA/EIA-568 Category 5/5e/6 cabling.
48V DC operating power (up to 15.4W), for data terminal units, is fed over
unused pairs of the cabling (7/8 and 4/5).
The Power over Ethernet Midspan powers PoE capable devices known as
Powered Devices (PD). Devices that are not equipped to receive power over
Ethernet require an external power splitter adapter (DWL-P50) to be powered.
