Positioning Of The PoE Supply

Mx2wire+ requires a PoE power supply via a standard PoE switch (Class 0, IEEE 802.3af or Class 4, IEEE 802.3at) for operation.

If no PoE switch is used, power can also be supplied­ using the NPA-PoE set from MOBOTIX or a DC power supply unit.

1. PoE supply from router to Mx2wire+ unit

Mx2wire+ always requires at least 6 W to be supplied by a PoE source (to power the Mx2wire+ devices).

Note: Mx2wire+ always logs on to the switch as a Class 0 device.

2. PoE supply to Mx2wire+ unit and PoE device

Camera and Mx2wire+ are separately powered by the PoE switch.

Note: The connection of a DSL router without direct PoE supply from the router is only possible when the Mx2wire+ on the other side is powered by a PoE source.

3. PoE supply to both Mx2wire+ units simultaneously.

Cables exceeding a certain length can still transfer data but no power.

Note: In case the length of the bell wire exceeds the maximum, so that the Mx2wire+ unit on the other side cannot be powered any more, it is possible to supply both units simultaneously using two separate PoE sources.

4. PoE supply using a MOBOTIX PoE injector (MX-NPA-PoE kit)

The MX-NPA-PoE kit is an appropriate PoE power supply according to IEEE 802.3af.

Note: The blue MX-NPA-PoE kit from MOBOTIX is available as an accessory. It is used in case no standard PoE switch (IEEE 802.3af) is available.

5. Network Without PoE, Power Supply Through One Device Via Power Supply Unit

Note: The power required for Mx2wire+ and one PoE end device can be supplied by connecting­ an external power supply unit (48–57 V DC, 600 mA) to another Mx2wire+ unit (max. power output for end device: PoE class 3/13 W).

6. Network Without PoE, Power Supply Through Both Devices Via Power Supply Unit

Note: If the two-wire cable is not sufficient to supply the Mx2wire+ remote station with power due to its length, both Mx2wire+ units can be supplied with power via a power supply unit (48–57 V DC, 600 mA).
