Introduction
This document provides the instructions for the installation and cabling for the
PA1212 unit. The PA1212 is designed to supply power to an Ethernet device,
such as a CCTV, IP camera, WiFi Access Point, or VoIP phone. It removes the
need for access to mains and a plug-top power supply. Once installed there is no
periodical maintenance required.
Installation
1. Mount the PA1212 splitter unit close to the Powered Device (PD) which is
the equipment to be powered using PoE.
2. Connect the PD to the PA1212 using a standard Cat5 Ethernet patch lead.
The PD must be connected to the ‘OUT’ side of the PA1212.
3. Attach the power lead between the splitter and the PD. This cable is
specific to the powered device but the pin out of the PA1212 is shown
below.
4. Now connect the ‘IN’ side of the splitter to the PoE Mid- or End span
using standard Cat5 cabling.
5. Verify that the PD is powered up. Otherwise see Trouble Shooting.
Installation Note:
This unit is not suitable for outdoor use or in an environment where the unit
will get wet. Please see Environmental Specifications.
