About the PSE-McBasic
The PSE-McBasic functions as a fiber-to-twisted pair media converter, as well as a
802.3af-compliant, Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), delivering power to a Powered
Device (PD) through the UTP data cable. Deploying a PSE-McBasic media converter supporting the Power over Ethernet standard is the solution for both extending the access point from the network core as well as powering the end-device at the access point.
The PSE-McBasic is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3u 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet and
IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet standards, performing a single conversion between
100Base-TX twisted pair and 100Base-FX multi-mode or single-mode fiber. Singlestrand fiber versions are also available. Each PSE-McBasic includes one RJ-45 connector for the twisted pair port and ST or SC connectors for the fiber port. The
PSE-McBasic is 1U high and includes diagnostic LEDs as well as a universal (100/240
V AC) power supply.
About Power over Ethernet and PSE
Power over Ethernet technology allows the PSE-McBasic to function as Power
Source Equipment (PSE) by distributing an electrical current across existing copper data cabling. If the connected unit requires power and is 802.3af compliant, the
PSE detects it and supplies power. LEDs on the PSE-McBasic indicate the amount of power being supplied to the Powered Device (PD) as well as if the PSE-McBasic is over temperature or over current or has an open circuit. PSE functionality is enabled by default.
NOTE
Although the PSE-McBasic automatically detects Powered Devices (PDs), and only supplies power when connected to an 802.3af-compliant PD, set the PSE switch to OFF when connecting to a non-802.3af-compliant device.
Installing the PSE-McBasic
While the PSE-McBasic comes ready to install, all configuration changes should be made after installation. To install the PSE-McBasic first make sure that it is placed on a suitably flat surface. Attach the cables between the PSE-McBasic and each device that will be interconnected. Then, plug it into a reliable, filtered power source.
INSTALLATION TIP
Several versions of the PSE-McBasic support single-strand fiber operation. Since
