The Use of Surge Protection Devices in IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) Applications
The ratification of IEEE Standard 802.3at, also known as Power over Ethernet+ (PoE+), increases the power available to Ethernet ports. Outdoor applications, especially in open-air, unshielded environments, need to be protected from surge events using a surge protective device (SPD). Outdoor environments increase the devices' susceptibility to electromagnetic interference (EMI). … [Read more...]
