PD671xxx - 8 / 12 / 24-Channel PoE AF and AT DIMM
Data Sheet (Non-confidential)
DESCRI PT I O N
KEY FE AT URES
IEEE 802.3AT-2009 and
IEEE802.3AF-2003 compliant
Up to 30 W per port power PoE
solution
RoHS compliant
Supports IETF PoE MIB (RFC 3621)
Up to 24 power ports per single DIMM
Up to 96 ports in a system, using
master and slave configuration
Microsemi’s™ new and unique family of Power over Ethernet
(PoE) modules enable next-generation network devices to
share data and power over the same cable. The PD671xxx
PoE PSE modules are fit / form compatible with the standard
plug-in memory modules used in personal computers (Dual
Inline Memory Modules - DIMMs) (see Figure 1 and Figure 12).
Thus, the use of these modules permit network devices to be
designed for up to 96 ports, with fewer ports actually installed.
Additional modules can be inserted in the field at any time.
The PD671xxx (8, 12 or 24 ports DIMM) includes a wide range
of functions. Some of these modules include the PD69000
micro-controller unit (PoE controller) for Enhanced features and
a flexible work environment in a DIMM master or DIMM slave
configuration (refer to Ordering Information, page 2).
Thermal protection per port
Thermal monitoring capabilities
Pre-standard detection methods
(Cisco Inline Power and Power over
LAN Legacy)
Microsemi’s PoE PD671xxx DIMMs implement real time
mechanisms including detection, classification, port real-time
protection and system level functions (power management and
MIB support).
Non-standard terminals supported
DC disconnect with DC modulation
AC disconnect function utilizing
external diodes
Microsemi’s PD69012 IC, 12-channel PoE Manager IC is at the
heart of these modules. PD671xxx DIMMs enable the
detection of IEEE802.3at-2009 Type 1 (low power) or Type 2
(high power) Powered Devices (PDs), ensuring safe power
feeding and removal over Ethernet ports. The PD69012-based
DIMMs detect and disable disconnected ports, using DC or AC
disconnection methods. The DIMMs are embedded in multi-
port and highly populated Ethernet switches, requiring a
minimum of external components.
PD 2-events classification function
Operates using a single input (44 to
57 VDC)
I2C or UART host interface
Host communication is backward
compatible with PD67024M
communication, or Marvell® ISSR
Programmable over current protection
