Taipei, Taiwan, June 15, 2007 – Ethernet Direct introduces Cobra CME-822, the first Industrial standard 10-port Managed Power over Ethernet (PoE) Switch with SFP option.Power over Ethernet is an evolving technology that extends the functionality of Ethernet by supplying reliable DC power over the same cables that currently carry Ethernet data. To address this upcoming requirement in Industrial applications, Ethernet Direct introduces an Industrial Managed PoE switch designed with 8 10/100TX + 2 10/100/1000T/ Mini-GBIC Combo w/ 8 PoE Injector. The CME-822 Industrial Managed PoE switch is compliant with IEEE 802.3af standard, the first managed 10-port density with SFP option and DIN Rail mountable with industrial grade robust housing protection. The switch features PoE on ports 1 to 8, supporting IEEE 802.3af End-point, Alternative B mode and supplies up to 15.4 watts of power per port. CME-822 ensures interoperability among a growing number of proprietary methods of distributing DC power to network devices.PoE technology describes a system to transmit electrical power, along with data, to remote devices over standard twisted-pair cable in an Ethernet network. With this technology, CME-822 provides cost effective deployment, increased mobility and simplified wiring for network connections.
