4.3
Loop-through of Ethernet and supply voltage
Features
The connection block features one connector for the incoming supply and one socket for
loop-through connection of the supply voltage. The connector and the socket for the supply
are linked with one another internally.
Two sockets are available for the infeed and loop-through of Ethernet. The sockets are not
connected to each other in the connection block. The switch in the base unit creates the
logical connection.
Note
If you disassemble the connection block during operation, only the power supply will be
looped through. Data communication to subsequent devices will be interrupted from this
module onwards.
