FEATURES
The Elmdene POE-ULTRAPOD™ is a unique PoE powered device that acts as an Ultra PoE splitter whilst also
providing charge locally to a 12V 17Ah battery. If power from the PoE input fails the battery seamlessly
continues to provide 12V dc to the load at up to 3A. This offers the installer a cost effective solution to
providing standby battery functionality to not only IP devices but any 12V device e.g. camera, maglock, etc.
over a single PoE Cat5 cable.
To further enhance the device, the POE-ULTRAPOD™ offers battery Deep Discharge Protection and also
remote fault monitoring with the provision of volt-free fault contacts for low battery and input PoE power
failure.
Provides 13.8V dc @ 3A max when used with PoE 802.3bt (PoE++ 60W)
Additional 0.5A available for battery charging
RJ45 Data pass through
Available as an unboxed module (DIN rail or lug mountable) or boxed solution
No mains required –powered solely from PoE
Cost effective solution to providing battery backup to IP devices
Boxed version accommodates industry standard 12V 17Ah SLA battery
Battery Deep Discharge Protection
Fault Outputs

Power Up
1) Attach correctly rated load cable to load equipment and fasten using cable ties –Note polarity
2) Attach suitable Ethernet cable from PoE++ source to POE IN RJ45 connector (100m max from PSE)
3) Attach suitable Ethernet cable between IP device and DATA RJ45 connector (if required)
4) Loop battery cable through supplied ferrite (1 turn) and attach to BATT terminal block, fasten with
cable ties
NOTE: ensure correct polarity of battery connections: +use Red lead, -use Black lead
Fig. 2 Position of ferrite
5) Connect charged 12V battery 17Ah (max) to the other end of battery cable.
6) Observe Green LED is ON when PoE is present
7) Observe Load equipment indicates power is present
8) Remove POE IN cable and observe load equipment continues to indicate power is present
9) Reconnect PoE INPUT cable
Signalling
1) Connect fault outputs to appropriate input of Control and Indicating Equipment (CIE) if required
2) Close cover and secure using fastening key provided
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of loss of PoE++ to the POE-ULTRAPOD™, the PoE Fault signal contact will open and the
Green LED will turn off, the POE-ULTRAPOD™ will continue to deliver up to 13.8V 3A of power to the
load for up to 4 hours (dependant on charge state or capacity of 17Ah battery).
If the output of the POE-ULTRAPOD™ fails, the cause of the failure should be investigated e.g. short
circuit load, connection of a deeply discharged battery. The fault should be rectified before restoring
power to the POE-ULTRAPOD™. If any of the fuses require replacing, ensure the correct fuse rating and
type is used.
Battery charging will only start after a compliant PoE power source is connected to POE-ULTRAPOD™, it
will NOT start up on battery. Ensure only 12V battery is fitted to the system.
MAINTENANCE
This unit is intended for use by Service Personnel only. There are NO USER SERVICEABLE parts inside.
There is no regular maintenance required of the POE-ULTRAPOD™ other than periodic testing, and
replacement of the standby battery.
Reference should be made to the battery manufacturer's documentation to determine
typical/expected battery life with a view to periodic replacement of the battery.
