Molex unveils PoE+ connector module

January 28, 2009--Molex's HyperJack 1000 Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) Integrated Connector Module (ICM) is designed for applications in Gigabit Ethernet switches, routers, hubs and industrial Ethernet switches and routers. This multi-port module integrates magnetics to support Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbits/sec and embeds the PoE+ power management functions in an RJ-45 connector.

The design combines PoE+ controller silicon to manage and deliver 30W PoE, coupled with Gigabit PoE+ magnetics, thermal management, and protection against ESD, EFT and EMI. It meets the pending PoETec V2.0 protocol.

This module features a zero to 70°C operating temperature and two bi-color LEDs per port, giving it the capability to indicate up to eight operating states.
