Magnum PS14PMagnum PS14P
4-port PoE Power Source Switch Features
•Four PoE ports in a smallheavy-duty Ethernet
switch•The switch and attachedPoE devices are powered
from an integral -48V DC
terminal block•Temperature rating of –40°C to 75°C handles
heavy duty applications• RJ-45 ports support stan-dard auto-negotiation
and auto-cross to enable
attaching any 10 Mb or a
100 Mb device, regular or
PoE•Same package and DIN-Rail mounting options as
the S14P Convenient
Switches

Power over Ethernet (PoE) with a small heavy-duty 4-port Switch. Using
an external -48VDC power source, all four of the PS14P’s Ethernet ports can
provide power as well as 10/100 Mb data transmission over the inter-connecting
Ethernet cables. Now, data and power for attached devices can be transmitted
over a single Ethernet twisted-pair cable.The PS14P
switches are Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), and are fully com-patible with Powered Devices (PD) that comply with the IEEE 802.3af PoE stan-
dard. The PS14P Switch ports have an auto-sensing algorithm so that they pro-
vide power only to attached 802.3af end devices. If proprietary PoE and non-PoE
equipment is attached, it will not be damaged. The PS14P ports discontinue
supplying power when the PoE (PD) devices are disconnected, and support the
PSE standard for over-current protection, under-current detection and fault pro-
tection.The PS14P is a standards-compliant way to power and connect a few smallEthernet devices at the edge of a network where AC power is either not available
or not cost-effective. Increasingly, small powered devices (PD) such as IP phones,
video cameras, wireless access points, digital clocks, special purpose radios, IP
phones, industrial sensors and laptop computers benefit with increased installa-
tion flexibility from the PS14P’s PoE-PSE capabilities. Traditionally, a mid-span
patch panel device could have been connected to a standard
Ethernet switch, and
insert power onto a PD device — a configuration requiring two devices to achieve
PoE. The PS14P integrates both the
Ethernet switch and the PoE power func-
tions into one unit, saving costs and space, and increasing reliability for the appli-
cation.The Magnum PS14P Switches are designed for heavy duty industrial as wellas temperature un-controlled applications such as sheltered outdoors. The PS14Pmodels are built with premium-grade extended temperature components, and
use special thermal techniques (patent pending) as well as a robust metal case for
durability. Mounting options include stand-alone panel-mounting, DIN-rail, or rack-
mount tray. No internal air flow is required for cooling, so the PS14P resists dust,
dirt, moisture, smoke and insects.A 4-port “go anywhere” Magnum PS14P Switch is a versatile and handyPoE solution. The PS14P provides edge access Ethernet ports in a convenient and
compact package. For fiber connectivity or additional non-PoE ports, simply add
a Magnum CS14P Converter Switch (two RJ-45 and one fiber) or an ES42P EdgeSwitch (6 ports) with all fiber port types available. All PS14P Power Source Conve-nient Switch models come with two (2) sets of LED indicators. One set is on thefront for viewing convenience when the unit is wall-mounted, and one LED set is
mounted in the end adjacent to three of the RJ-45 ports for easy viewing when
units are in a rack-mount tray.The Magnum PS14P family of Power Source Convenient Switches and otherMagnum products are designed and manufactured in the USA and backed by a
three-year warranty.
