FAQ
What input voltage does this PoE splitter require?
The SDC IPS-12 requires 57 volts DC input through a Power over Ethernet connection. This matches standard PoE voltage levels, allowing compatibility with PoE switches and injectors that deliver 57V DC. The splitter converts this input to the 12V DC output needed by connected SDC door controllers.
What is the maximum output power of this splitter?
This PoE+ splitter delivers a maximum output power of 24 watts. This is calculated from the 12V DC output voltage and 2A maximum current specification. The 24W capacity provides sufficient power for SDC IP Pro door controllers and expansion stations while maintaining headroom for stable operation.
Which SDC devices are compatible with this PoE splitter?
The IPS-12 is specifically compatible with SDC IP Pro Single Door IP Controllers (SDC IPDC) and SDC IP Pro Expansion Door Stations (SDC IPDS). These devices require 12V DC power, which this splitter provides from PoE input. Always verify specific model compatibility with your SDC system requirements.
Does this splitter require configuration or software?
No configuration or software is required for the SDC IPS-12 PoE+ splitter. It functions as a passive power conversion device that automatically transforms 57V DC PoE input to 12V DC output. Simply connect the PoE input and Ethernet output cables—the splitter handles voltage conversion without any setup or management interface.
Can this splitter be used with non-SDC devices?
While engineered specifically for SDC IP Pro compatibility, the splitter delivers standard 12V DC at up to 2A through an Ethernet port. However, compatibility depends on the specific power requirements and connector compatibility of non-SDC devices. For optimal performance and warranty coverage, use with SDC IP Pro controllers and expansion stations as intended.
What installation advantages does this PoE splitter provide?
This splitter significantly simplifies installation by allowing both data and power to be delivered through a single Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate AC power outlets at each door controller location, reducing electrical work, cable clutter, and installation time. The compact design fits easily in network cabinets or at the door location.
