1.4 Overview: Performance Data
The data rates shown in the tables are
net data rates
, also referred to as the payload,
which are given in Mbps. In contrast to the gross data rates (including the data load for
the operation of the system) that are usually provided when the performance data of DSL
connections is specified, for instance, the amount of data shown here is the actual amount
of data that is fully available to the end device operated on the receiver unit.
As an example, a MOBOTIX network camera only requires a data rate of approximately
2.5 Mbps.
Notes
When long cables are used, voltage drops may make it impossible to supply end devices
with power, so a separate power supply must be provided. In other words, the data range
is generally greater than the maximum power transmission line. A separate voltage
source (48–57 V DC, 600 mA) can be connected to both units. The maximum
PoE power consumption for the end device is 13 watts (corresponding to PoE class 3).
Only a network patch cable with a maximum length of typically
ten meters
should be
connected directly to an unit in order to bridge the path to the next device
(switch, router, PC, PoE injector or IP camera, for example).
No provision is made by MOBOTIX for any further extension of the network, for example,
by connecting a longer network cable to .
It is not possible to link more than two units.

This brief overview contains sample power output data that was obtained by MOBOTIX
under real conditions and using standard benchmark test procedures. Refer to the follow-
ing pages for more detailed information on power output. You will find tables with the net
data rates and power output values depending on the type and length of the two-wire
cable and the type of power supply (PoE class 3, class 4 or via the MOBOTIX NPA-PoE set,
a particularly powerful class 3 PoE injector).
By correctly combining
or twisting addition-
ally available wires
to form two wires or
cables, the maximum
transmission line for
data and power can be
considerably increased
supplies end
devices with up to 13 W
of power (up to class 3)
