OPERATION
3.1 Transfer Of data and Power
As shown in Section 1.2, Mx2wire can be put to practical use as an Ethernet extension that
includes the transport of power over Ethernet in a wide range of private or commercial
applications. In principle, Mx2wire can always be used to connect any 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
device (such as a PC, WLAN, IP camera, IP door station or IP telephone, for example).
An Mx2wire Media converter Set (Two units) Simultaneously Transfers
Data with a transfer rate of up to 30 Mbps (depending on the cable cross-section and
length)
and
power according to the PoE standard (maximum 7 watts). Suitable PoE end
devices can be simultaneously supplied by this power supply directly via Mx2wire (e.g.,
MOBOTIX camera, MOBOTIX door station, etc.).
Mx2wire network connection using A Patch cable
Network devices (such as PCs, routers, camera and switches, for example) are connected
to the front of the Mx2wire unit simply by inserting the Ethernet network cable (category
5 patch cable and higher) into the standard RJ45 connector.
Note
Two Mx2wire units must always be used as a pair (as originally packed). The two paired
units have the same network ID. The network ID is printed on a sticker located in the
top right corner of the circuit board.
Application examples
in Section 1.2
As a rule, no additional
network device is required,
as the end device can be
supplied with up to 7 watts
via a PoE power supply
Only patch cables with a
maximum length of 10 m
should be used
