Leveraging Power over Ethernet (PoE) in Facility Monitoring of Particles
Connecting particle counters and electronics to power outlets can be challenging—especially in remote locations where an outlet is not easily reached. A technology that is quickly expanding is PoE because it provides power and network communications through a standard network cable. This application note discusses PoE technology and the applications.
PoE is a simple, convenient method to build a network infrastructure that is flexible, efficient, and allows for future growth. As more devices connect to the PoE-enabled system, a PSE that provides more power may be required— but this option is much cheaper than installing new power outlets and network ports. In addition, a single UPS can provide reliable power and protect all devices connected to the system. Finally, since PDs like the Airnet II and IsoAir are lower power, they consume less energy and help reduce the impact upon natural resources
