AQE15 and AQE30 Power over Ethernet Midspan Injector Installation Manual

Description

The AQE line of Power over Ethernet (PoE) MidSpan Injectors are available at 15.5 watts (W) and 30W in accordance with the requirements in the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Standard 802.3, "Ethernet."

The AQE line of MidSpan Injectors provides PoE compliant power to PoE compatible devices such as Internet Protocol (IP) cameras, infrared (IR) illuminators, access control panels and readers, or to non-PoE devices using a PoE Extractor such as the AQE30E.

Regulatory Information

The equipment discussed within this manual has been tested to the following standards:

• UL Standard UL294b, "The Standard of Safety for Access Control System Units"
• International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and UL Standard IEC/UL 60950-1, "Components"
• Canadian Standards Association Standard C22.2 No. 205-M1983, "Signal Equipment"

Mounting the AQE Series Module

The AQE line of Midspan Injectors mount using two screws in the mounting tabs. The unit must be mounted in a secure, indoor, dry location to a suitable surface, using suitable hardware.

Data

This is the non-PoE input from the network switch. This connector is an RJ45 jack and accepts a CAT-5 cable.

PoE/Data

This is the PoE output to the camera or other device to be powered. See the Specifications section for ratings. This connector is an RJ45 jack and accepts a CAT-5 cable.

Port Status (Green)

This LED shows the status of the AQE MidSpan Injector. See the appropriate status chart for more information.

PoE Shutdown

This input will shut down the PoE output of the AQE MidSpan Injector. This can be useful for rebooting devices that have

become non-responsive. These terminal strips accept wire sizes from AWG14–AWG22. To shut down the PoE Output, apply any DC voltage within the ratings shown under "Shutdown Terminals" in the Specifications section of this manual.

Mounting Tab

The mounting tab centers are spaced 3.85" on center. Refer to the mounting guide (page 1) for mounting details.

24 VAC or 24 VDC Input

This is the power supply input for the AQE MidSpan Injector. These terminal strips accept wire sizes from AWG14–AWG22.See the Specifications section for more information. When using DC voltage, the voltage may be connected in either polarity.
