Power-over-Ethernet is nowadays a widespread method to power devices (for example: radio equipment, WiFi AP, cameras, or IoT devices).
Typically, a device’s power supply cannot be managed remotely, meaning that in the event of a failure or malfunction, on-site intervention is required. This is compounded by the inefficiencies of conventional power sources, which often prevent devices from operating at their best, such as:
- - The equipment is frequently installed on poles or masts—locations that are difficult to access—and is therefore more exposed to faults caused by surges or short circuits;
- - Many devices require high current. When a PoE injector operates near its maximum current rating, the likelihood of failure increases;
- - Devices may become unreachable due to software or firmware freezes, requiring a manual power cycle to restore operation.
These factors result in long service outages, costly on-site interventions, and increased operational expenses.
9dot products are designed to prevent these issues and resolve the core problems that lead to failures.
Why 9dot
The Problems
Many devices powered over Ethernet have different energetic load requirements.
Having many feeders results in many cables of different size and a messy cabinet.
The feeding of a device can not be managed remotely: in the event of a breakdown or a blackout an intervention on site is required.
The power supply of a device cannot be remotely managed: in the event of a malfunction or power outage, on-site intervention is required.
Inefficiencies in terms of energy loads (devices not operating optimally).
The Solution
A single power supply system able to interface with any device.
Easy to install and to extend, and cabinets always tidy!
Remotely manageable: in the event of a breakdown, overload or reboot, you can intervene from the dedicated web-app.
Every device gets the required energy to work at its best. You can check the real-time consumption of every single device from the web-app.
