Network and Power
Connections to the GW1200
Gateway
The following is a summary of available power and network options:
Usage Option
Description
Single GW1200
Gateway – connected
to a network
GW1200s can be remotely controlled (for configuration and
monitoring purposes) via the local area network. In this case,
connect it to both a power source and the network
.
GW1200’s support power-over-Ethernet (PoE), which
supplies both power and network services via a single
connection.
Power options are 24-48V or PoE.
Direct Power Supply
Connect a 24 to 48 VDC power source direct to the Gateway’s power jack.
Note
The GW1200 requires approximately 8 W of power. When connecting a Gateway to a
direct power source with one of the above options, verify that the provided power
level is sufficient.
The device must only be powered by a limited (marked LPS or NEC class 2) power
supply.
PoE Switch
If the network has a Power-over-Ethernet infrastructure, a CAT-5/6 Ethernet cable
connects the PoE switch to the Gateway’s LAN connector. This supplies both the power
and the network connection.
Note
PoE standard 802.3af class 0 allows power for a single GW1200 Gateway.
110/220 VAC to 48 VDC PoE Single-Port Injector
The PoE Single Port Injector converts 110/220 VAC to 48 VDC and permits connecting a
single cable from the network to the Gateway’s LAN connector, thus supplying both
power and network connectivity.
