2.3.6
For Ethernet control using Power Over Ethernet (RC models only)
•
Mini-Circuits RC power sensor models do not directly support PoE but an external PoE
splitter could be used to enable their use on a PoE network.
•
Follow the instructions from the supplier to connect the splitter’s PoE interface into an
Ethernet port supporting PoE.
•
Connect the power sensor’s USB connection into the splitter’s USB / DC supply port (an
adapter may be required), ensuring the sensor’s power indicator LED turns on.
•
Connect the power sensor’s Ethernet connection into the splitter’s RJ45 network port,
the sensor’s Ethernet data indicator LEDs should turn on.
