Fremont, CA (May 1, 2024) — Phihong, a leader in Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) midspan solutions, is expanding the availability of its IEEE802.3at and IEEE802.3bt compliant outdoor Power-over-Ethernet injectors. Previously only available to select OEM customers, these robust devices are now available to qualified customers exclusively through TRC Electronics, based in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, which has been selected as the exclusive distributor for these products.
All Phihong PoE Outdoor Injectors are designed to withstand extreme outdoor weather conditions. The POEO30U-1AT-X-R outdoor injector delivers 30W of output power with an operating temperature range of -40 degrees C to +65 degrees C. Meanwhile, the POEO75U-1BT-X-R and POEO75U-1BT-R outdoor injectors provide 90W of output power with an operating temperature range of -40 degrees C to +55 degrees C, which derates to 70W at +65 degrees C.
Each injector is housed in a sturdy, non-vented IP67 rated waterproof enclosure measuring 9.7 x 6.7 x 2.3 inches, equipped with options for wall mounting or pole mounting. The injectors also bear UL, CE, and UKCA compliance markings and meet 4kV Line-Line and 6kV L-PE (IEEE61000-4-5) surge immunity standards.
Supporting data speeds up to 10G, all injectors comply with IEEE802.3at and IEEE802.3bt standards.
“Phihong has consistently delivered high-quality, reliable PoE solutions that our customers trust. As the exclusive distributor, TRC Electronics is thrilled to partner with Phihong to bring these advanced outdoor injectors to a broader market. This collaboration underscores our commitment to providing top-tier, innovative solutions to meet the evolving needs of our customers,” says Stephen Lagomarsino, President of TRC Electronics.
“Phihong has been a leader in and primarily focused on PoE solutions for the indoor environment. However, with the increased need for security camera surveillance in parking lots and for cameras by municipalities to monitor traffic, as well as for outdoor wireless access points, now is a good time to showcase Phihong’s capabilities and its broader range of solutions by offering our outdoor PoE injectors to a wider range of customers,” says Ed Schreiber, VP of Marketing for Phihong USA.
