Safety Information; Emc Compliance - Axis PoE Midspan 1-Port Installation Manual

Safety Information

Installation and removal of the PoE Midspan
must be carried out by qualified personnel
only.
AC Power Cord Set:
• The power cord must have regulatory agency
approval for the specific country in which it
is used (i.e., UL, CSA, VDE, etc.).
• The power cord must be a three-conductor
type (two current carrying conductors; one
ground conductor) terminated on one end by
an IEC 60320 appliance coupler (for
connection to the PoE Midspan), and on the
other end by a plug containing a ground
(earthing) contact.
• The power cord must be rated for a minimum
of 250Vac RMS operation, with a minimum
rated current capacity of 5 amps (or a
minimum wire gauge of 18 AWG (0.75mm
Note: PoE Midspan units installed in
Australia require power cords with a
minimum wire gauge of 16 AWG (1.0 mm
• The AC wall socket-outlet must be near the
PoE Midspan and easily accessible. You can
remove AC power from the PoE Midspan by
disconnecting the AC power cord from either
the wall socket-outlet or the PoE Midspan
appliance coupler.
The PoE Midspan data and data/power
interfaces are qualified as SELV (Safety
Extra-Low Voltage) circuits according to IEC
60950. These interfaces can only be connected
to SELV interfaces on other equipment.
WARNINGS!
• Read the installation instructions before
connecting the PoE Midspan to its power
source.
• Follow basic electricity safety measures
whenever connecting the PoE Midspan to its
power source.
• This product relies on the building
installation for short-circuit (over current)
protection. Ensure that a fuse or circuit
breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 3A. U.S.
(240 VAC, 1.5A international) is used on the
phase conductor.
• A voltage mismatch can cause equipment
damage and may pose a fire hazard. If the
voltage indicated on the label is different
from the power outlet voltage, do not
connect the PoE Midspan to this power
outlet.
The PoE Midspan "Data In" and "Data & Power
Out" ports are shielded RJ-45 data sockets.
They cannot be used as Plain Old Telephone
Service (POTS) telephone sockets. Only RJ-45
data connectors may be connected to these
sockets.

EMC Compliance

A Category 5 foiled twisted-pair cable must be
used to ensure compliance with requirements
of FCC Part 15, subpart B, Class B. The use of
unshielded cables (Category 5 for 10BASE T
ports or for 100BASE Tx ports) complies with
Class A requirements.
