The new Ag97000-FL stands out for its high reliability and robustness. Thanks to its improved low-voltage start-up function, it protects connected PDs from damage caused by the presence of “out of spec” voltages —an issue that can occur especially during start-up with certain PSEs. This ensures trouble-free commissioning and enhances overall system stability.
Power-over-Ethernet applications are rarely isolated systems, and system designers often have limited control over the selection of PSE and PD. In practice, system installers are usually assigned a switch port to which they must connect their system. Customers rightly expect their system to function smoothly once connected. The Ag97000-FL is pin-to-pin compatible with its predecessor and offers Class Programmability, covering a wide range of IEEE 802.3af applications.
