Fundamental Problem

POWER OVER ETHERNET (PoE, PoE+)

Has distance, data rate and power limitations

Custom engineering designs are expensive, and not robust

A Standardized Solution Is Needed To Address These Issues…

Traditionally engineered solutions are…

• Complex

• Expensive To Implement

• Slow

• Unreliable

• Require Significant Expertise

CommScope's

Powered Fiber

Cable System

Complete “rack to device” solution for both powering and

communicating with devices such as small cells, Wi-Fi hotspots,

HD cameras, and variety of devices requiring optical

communications and DC power in one system.

GOALA hybrid copper/fiber system that installs

like a traditional PoE Circuit

SYSTEM ELEMENTS• Hybrid cable

• PoE Extender interface

• Power supply (PSU)


Powered Fiber Cable

Designed for rapid deployment• Designed for “easy peel” access – the

cable can be accessed much faster than traditional hybrid cables

• No special tools needed – one ordinary wire strip tool accesses both the optical fiber and conductor elements

• Utilizes globally existing, proven and inexpensive FTTH style flat cable hardware

• Very flexible due to stranded conductors

• Outdoor and Riser/LZSH indoor/outdoor rated versions

AVAILABLE IN 12 AWG or 16 AWG (3.31mm2 and 1,31mm2)

UP TO 12 OPTICAL FIBERS SMF OR MMF

CONTAINS A RIDGE THAT ALLOWS FOR PHYSICAL POLARITY IDENTIFICATION


PoE Extender

Power Management

• Automatically corrects for voltage drop over distance = zero electrical calculations

• Optical signal and power in is converted to RJ45 PoE+ compliant jack

• Automatic polarity correction

PoE Extender

Multiple Levels Of Electrical Protection Provide:

• Lightning/surge protection

• AC mains cross protection

• Power induction protection (EMI, etc.)

• Protection against spikes and brownouts

• Clean, stable DC power delivery to the end device


PoE Extender

Features

• Termination for hybrid cable input

• Circuit protection electronics

• Environmentally sealed closure

• Electrical power management

• Media Conversion

• Available in 1 or 2 PoE+ output


2-Port PoE Extender

• Enhances the Powered Fiber Cable

System by allowing 2 PoE or PoE+

devices to be connected via one hybrid

cable.

• ITU K.45 Lightening/surge protection

• IP67 sealing - Designed to terminate

the Powered Fiber Cable

• NEC Class 2 and SELV compliant (no

electricians needed)

• ATEX Explosion Proof certification

• Options to share the bandwidth of a

single 1 Gb/s SFP or utilize two SFPs for

1 Gb/s per port operation

• Paintable sunshade for improved

thermal performance and better

aesthetics


60W Single Port PoE Extender

• Some devices need greater than 30W (PoE+) power delivery such as PTZ Cameras with added heater block elements, small cells, large Wi-Fi Access points, etc.

• The 60W single Port PoE Extender combines 60W of DC power onto all 4 pairs of the copper conductors in a single RJ45 output.

• The housing is the same as the “2 Port” PoE Extender, with one RJ45 port eliminated.

• Same performance as the 2 Port Extender


Power Supply

NEC Class II and SELV compliant = No electricians needed to deploy PFCS.

Partnership with GE Industrial Solutions to offer this via Commscope.

Up to 32 PF cables from 2U of rack space … so up to 64 devices powered when using 2 Port Extenders

Power Express Class 2, shown here “fully loaded” with four 8 port modules

SPS Bulk DC Rectifier, shown here “fully loaded” with 3 Rectifier modules and PSU controller

• The SPS Bulk Rectifier takes in 120VAC or 240VAC and provides 57VDC output.

• The Power Express takes in the 57VDC output from the SPS and provides up to 32 Class 2 outputs to feed the Powered Fiber Cables. • Each output circuit is separately controlled to ensure

operation within NEC Class 2 and SELV limits. • Electrical protection for each circuit

CommScope’s Powered Fiber Cable System Application Examples

CAMPUS ENVIRONMENT CELL SITE BASE STATION AIRPORT SURVEILLANCE


Parking Garage ExampleExtenders Installed Junction Boxes

The single port PoE Extender is small enough that some customers with very strict “aesthetic” requirements place the Extenders inside a junction box. Also the PF cables are run in conduit in these applications allowing for complete hiding of the PFCS network.

This of course is very secure, as all components are hidden from public view and access.


Parking Garage ExampleCentralized Telecommunications Room

Because the PFCS allows for longer distance applications, a single Telecommunications Roomcan serve a much larger area. This allows for more centralized equipment positioning, making it easier to maintain and provide UPS capabilities.


Campus ExampleExtenders Installed Inside Lamp Posts

The “Aruba” single port PoE Extender is small enough that some customers with very strict “aesthetic” requirements place the Extenders inside lap posts and similar locations. Also the PF cables are ran underground in these applications allowing for complete hiding of the PFCS network.

This of course is very secure, as all components are hidden from public view and access.


Airport ExampleExtenders Placed Inside Hardened, Secure Closures For Extra Security

The Universal Mount version of the Extender can be mounted on walls, in closures, directly on poles, etc.

In this case the airport wanted extreme security for the network due to remote installation locations with public access … so all cables are installed in metal conduits, and Extenders are inside security enclosures.


City/Metro “Smart City” Style DeploymentPublic River Walk Area

This is a common example of deployment in a public access area (a “river walk”). The Universal mount has provisions for banding to poles.


Railway And Military Examples

In the example to the left this Railway customer (in Europe) wanted extra security similar to the airport customer on the previous slide. Here the Extender is placed along with other equipment for other applications.

Some customers (mostly military) are using the PF cable and Extender for “rapid deployment” applications where the spool is able to pay out for fast deployment, and then can be retracted.
