Introduction

Microchip's family of Power over Ethernet Midspans (PoE) PD-96XXGC/AC and PD-95XXGC/AC inject power over
data-carrying Ethernet cabling. Employing these devices reduces the need for AC outlets, local UPS, and AC/DC
adapters near Powered Devices (PDs).
PD-9x06GC, PD-9x12GC, and PD-9x24GC/AC Midspans support 6, 12, and 24 ports respectively, in a
10/100/1000BaseTx Ethernet network, over TIA/EIA-568 category 5/5e/6 cabling. PD-96xxGC and PD-95xxGC
family devices can provide up to 90 W and 60 W respectively according to the new IEEE
power is supplied over both spare and data pairs of wires within a cable (1/2, 3/6, 4/5, and 7/8) to terminal units.
PoE Midspan normally powers devices that are PoE enabled or are equipped to receive power over Ethernet. These
devices are called Powered Devices (PDs).
PoE Midspans offer the following important features.
Safe and reliable power over an existing Ethernet infrastructure.
Remote management using web control and/or SNMPv3.
High-level of network security.
Safe solution that protects network infrastructure.
Standards compliant: IEEE 802.3bt.
Provides safe Power and Data over a single RJ45 cable.
