AXIS AX-3001 PoE Midspan 1-Port
AXIS AX-3001 Installation Guide
The Power over Ethernet (PoE) Midspan adds 48V DC to unused (non-data) wires (Mode B) in a
standard Category 5 Ethernet cable. As a result, the PoE Midspan delivers both data and power to
the terminal. The device is designed to meet the IEEE802.3af standard.

Preliminary Steps

• Ensure AC power is applied to the PoE Midspan using an operational AC cable with an
appropriate ground connection.
• Ensure that output Ethernet cable is connected to the Data & Power Out port.
• Verify that a power ready Ethernet compatible device is connected.
Note:
Do not use a cross over cable between the PoE Midspan output port and the load device.
Installation
Note the following before mounting the PoE Midspan to a fixed location:
• The PoE Midspan may be wall or bench mounted using the rear side holes.
• Do not to cover the PoE Midspan or block the airflow to the PoE with any foreign objects.
Keep the PoE Midspan away from excessive heat and humidity, and keep it free from vibra-
tion and dust
• Ensure that the cable length from the Ethernet network source to the terminal does not
exceed 100 meters (333 Feet). The PoE is not a repeater and does not amplify the Ethernet
data signal
• Use a splitter if desired; ensure that the splitter is connected close to the terminal and not
on the Midspan
• There is no "on-off" switch, simply plug the PoE Midspan to an AC power source

Installing the Unit

1. Connect the PoE Midspan to an AC outlet (100-240 VAC), using a standard power cable.
2. Connect the unit Data In jack (input) to the remote Ethernet network switch Patch panel.
3. Connect the Data & Power Out jack (output) to the terminal.
