AS-i Power24V
capable.
The devices can be operated directly on a 24V (PELV) power supply. The gateway VBG-PN-K20-
DMD-EV is optimized with integrated data coupling coils and adjustable self-resetting fuses for safe
use also of powerful 24V power supplies. The gateways VBG-PN-K20-D, VBG-PN-K20-DMD and
VBG-PN-K20-D-BV need to add in Power24V-operation a power supply decoupling unit.
