PoE stands for Power over Ethernet. The technology allows to power devices such as clocks by using standard CAT-6 Ethernet Cable. The ability to place a digital clock without worrying about installing separate AC electric power points for the clock.
PoE Clocks are highly accurate and receive synchronized time updates automatically over the network.
PoE Clocks get their time,data,and power directly from the existing network, allowing for reliability with easy installation and maintenance.
PoE clocks permit an organization to use their existing Ethernet to achieve synchronized timing throughout their facilities. PoE clocks offer a number of advantages to the organization.
Standard PoE has Ethernet cable distance restrictions of 100 meters (328 feet) for data and power transmission
A single run of ethernet cable will provide power up to 320 feet. If more distance is needed, a PoE switch can be used. A PoE switch can minimize the wiring and extend the reach of your security installation. A PoE switch can also expand your network system to the maximum number of supported clocks
A power over Ethernet (PoE) switch is a device that contains multiple Ethernet ports that provide power and network communications to Digital clocks. This switch allows you to expand the reach and also simplify the installation of PoE digital clocks in your facility.
PoE switches are available with many ports Such as 8 port PoE switch or 16 Port PoE switch and 24 Port PoE switch etc., you can select the PoE switch as per your requirement with the number of PoE ports.
