General information
Application
Deployment of HD cameras, Wi-Fi access points, optical network terminals, small cells (picocells, femtocells, metrocells, etc.) and other network access devices can be difficult, especially in outdoor environments. Many of these devices accept a Power over Ethernet (PoE) input for power and communications. However, the PoE distance limitation of 100 meters can cause difficulties with network planning.
Also, power is not always readily available in the precise locations where device placement is needed to improve 4G LTE and/or 802.11ac Wi-Fi
coverage for wireless networks, such as on the sides of buildings, lamp posts, etc. In these situations, it is typically needed to run power to the
desired location prior to installing the devices. Also, any concern about who pays for that power and how it is monitored requires wireless network operators to negotiate with local utility companies and building owners. All of this adds time and money to the installation of network access devices.
CommScope has developed a solution that combines power and optical fiber communications into one system, eliminating the hassles and extra
expense associated with powering typical low-power network devices.
