PoE5 IEEE 802.3 bt 100W Power-over-Ethernet Tester
Part Numbers: 53-0005-11 (24 Ports), 53-0005-31 (8 Ports)
The new IEEE 802.3 bt Power-over-Ethernet standard changes the maximum power available over Ethernet for a more efficient delivery system. Reach Technology has designed the PoE5 tester to support the new bt standard. It provides engineering and manufacturing a cost-effective, functional testing tool for Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), including Ethernet switches, Power over HDBaseT (PoH), and LED lighting controllers.
The PoE5 is in a R1U enclosure with 24 ports
The PoE5 tester supports functional diagnostic testing on 24 PSE ports compatible with IEEE Standards 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3 bt, plus supports data path speeds up to 10GBASE-T, including 2.5G and 5G. PoE5 testers can draw up to 1000mA per port while passing 10Gb traffic. The 24 port provides high-density Powered Device (PD) loads in a single chassis with eight power class levels. Data protocol features such as the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) are not supported to keep costs low.
PoE5 Advantages
- Quick, thorough final test before shipping PoE source to ensure customers do not receive units with DOA ports.
- Test all ports at full power with no duty cycle limitations.
- Datapath loopback at full 10G rate for complete power and data integrity testing.
- Cost-optimized for volume production functional testing.
Test Applications
- Multiport Ethernet Switch with PoE Power
- HDbaseT (POH) Power Units
- LED Lighting PoE Power Units
Features
- Compliant to IEEE 802.3 bt standard.
- Supports eight power Classifications (1-8) and Autoclass (all nominal).
- Up to 100W total per-port adjustable load, 50W per power pair, fully programmable.
- Support for both single and dual signature implementations.
- 10GbaseT traffic for each test port to neighboring port, isolated from PD load.
- Supports Autoclass option for LED lighting applications.
- 24 UUT (Unit Under Test) for high-density testing.
- Measures individual port voltages for compliance to the standard.
- Dynamic load with per-power-pair user-defined current or constant power test levels.
- Mounts in a standard 19” high rack (R1U) using screw-on ears.
Specifications
- Chassis Dimensions: 16.665” D x 17.30” W x 1.74” H
- Shipping Weight: Approximately 21 lbs.
- Box Dimensions: 22” D x 22” W x 6” H
- Materials: Metal housing with PCBA for line cards, fans, cables, and power supply board.
- Each tester comes with a worldwide universal AC input power supply brick (85-264 VAC input, 90% efficient, 0°C to 40°C operation, IEC320/C14 input). Order an optional accessory kit to get a six-foot AC power cord with an IEC 320 C13 connector with a mating outlet type to match your region and a console cable with either a DB9 or USB connection.

- Export Administration Regulations (ECCN): EAR99
- Country of Origin (COO): United States
The load is designed to have a 4.7A/ms current slew rate. All 24 ports are designed to be able to come to full load from power good in under 150ms.
Texas Instruments TPS2372. IEEE 802.3bt PoE High-Power PD Interface with Automatic MPS & Autoclass.
All 24 ports are capable of providing load.
Each port has 47uF of bulk capacitance connected to the PSE after the PoE class is negotiated. All detection criteria defined in section 145.2.6.3 of 802.3bt are preserved during detection and negotiation.
As the data path is entirely passive, it supports 1G-10G traffic. All channels on all units are verified to provide a CAT-6A compliant data path before they leave the factory.
Legacy detect/Cbad are 10uF.
