Power Over Ethernet (Poe) Support; Output Signals Electrical Specifications - Teledyne FLIR A68 Series User Manual

Power over Ethernet (PoE) Support

• The FLIR A68/A38 series requires a PoE Class 0 or Class 1 (or greater) power
source for the network if not using a separate external power source connected
to pins 1 & 2 of the camera's I/O Connector.
• To use PoE, the camera network setup requires a powered computer NIC
supporting PoE, or a PoE capable Ethernet switch, or an Ethernet power injector.
Important: Connect power via the I/O connector or PoE, but not both.
Although FLIR A68/A38 series has protection, differences in ground levels
may cause operational issues or electrical faults.
When using PoE, the camera's I/O pin 1 (Camera Power – Ground) and
pin 2 (Camera Power- Power) must not be connected.
If both supplies are connected and active, the FLIR A68/A38 series will
use the I/O power supply connector. But as stated, ground differences
may cause camera faults or failure.

(see LineSource
• Outputs are open on power-up with the default factory settings
• A software reset will not reset the outputs to the open state if the outputs are
closed
• A user setup configured to load on boot will not reset the outputs to the open
state if the outputs are closed
• No output signal glitch on power-up or polarity reversal
Typical Operating Common Power Voltage Range: +3V to 28Vdc at 24mA
• Maximum Common Power Voltage Range: ±30Vdc
