PoE Test Module

XM-2LE2

Description

XM-2LE2 is a platform which dedicates to test and monitor Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices. Power over Ethernet, specified by IEEE802.3af, describes a system to transmit power with data, to remote devices over standard twisted-pair cable in an Ethernet network.

System Feature

• IEEE802.3af compliant
• PoE Verification Procedure

• PD Detection test

• Decide whether the terminal is PoE enabled
• Test Detection Voltage
• PD Classification test
• Signature ranges
• Voltage range
• Time
• Gradual Startup test
• Inrush current limit and time
• Turn-off voltage and time
• Support operation test
• Support short circuit test
• Support overload test
• Support repetitive overload test
• Support load cross talk test
• PD Disconnection test

Direct measurements of power, current, voltage, rise time, duration, signaling behavior and other physical and signaling protocol-related parameters.

Major Benefits
