Bel Magnetic Solution has introduced the 10GBASE-T single-port 60W, four-pair PoE MagJack ICMs that are created for those looking to upgrade product performance for maximum speed at 60W of power over standard Ethernet cable.

The 60W PoE specification doubles the number of power products can tolerate over existing applications while also improving their speed by ten times. The series can transmit or receive 0W to 60W of power per port over all four pairs within the Ethernet cable while keeping the bandwidth of the NBASE-T compliant 10Gigabit Ethernet signals. These ICMs can be employed as either a PSE or a PD and are compatible with all major 10GBASE-T PHYs, including the most recent current-mode and voltage-mode PHYs. The ICMs are backwards compatible to existing Ethernet networks and to slower speeds and lower powers and use industry-standard footprints and pin-outs.

These 60W ICMs are excellent for next-generation 5G cellular and Wireless Access Point applications and can be employed on next general PoE products where 30W of power is not sufficient.
