About the Power over Ethernet Midspan PowerDsine’s family of Power over Ethernet Midspans, series 3500 & 6500, injects power over data-carrying Ethernet cabling. The PD- 6506/6512/6524 Midspans, support 6, 12 and 24 ports respectively in a 10/100BaseTx Ethernet network, over TIA/EIA-568 Category 5/5e/6 cabling.
The Power over Ethernet Midspan is not a repeater. As such, the maximum distance from the Ethernet switch must not exceed 100 meters (328 ft). As specified in the IEEE 802.3 standard, the Power over Ethernet Midspan is guaranteed to work up to this distance.

Each data port is configured as shown in Figure 2-3, as data “Pass- Through” ports for all data pins (pins 1, 2, 3 and 6). Ensure that Category 5 or higher cabling is used, as shown in the above figure. PowerDsine Pin 3 is Transmit (TXD)
Background Information As shown in Figure 3-1, the Midspan is connected in series with an Ethernet switch/hub. The data outputs from the switch are connected to the Midspan. The Midspan delivers power over the spare twisted pairs (pins 7/8 and pins 4/5) of the Category 5 cabling, without degrading the quality of data.
