摘要： Power feed circuitry within a power over Ethernet (PoE) device detects fault conditions within power and data distribution lines coupled to the power feed circuitry. This circuitry includes network interface circuitry coupled to the network in order to exchange both data and power signals. The power interface circuitry also communicatively couples to at least one isolated power supply in order to draw power. The power may then be distributed via the attached network interface circuitry. A fault detection module couples to the power interface circuitry and the network interface circuitry. This fault detection module senses fault conditions associated with the power interface circuitry, network interface circuitry, and associated distribution lines in order to better draw and distribute power signals using the power feed circuitry.

摘要： Embodiments of the present invention provide a power feed circuit operable to supply an Ethernet power signal to a coupled Ethernet network. This power feed circuit includes a number of input nodes, differential transistor pairs, active control circuits, insertion loss control limit circuits and output nodes. The input nodes receive a first power signal such as that provided by an isolated 48 volt power supply. Each transistor of the differential transistor pairs couples to one input node. These differential transistor pairs draw currents which combine to produce a power signal component of the Ethernet power signal. The active control circuits sense the currents drawn by each transistor and are operable to apply a feedback signal to the differential transistor pairs based on the second circuit. Additionally, the insertion loss control limit circuit may sense the power and/or data rate associated with the data signal component of the Ethernet power signal. This then enables the power signal component to be adjusted. By considering the power of both the power signal component and data signal component, the overall power may be limited to prevent damage to downstream power devices. At least one twisted pair couples to each differential transistor pair's output node and is operable to pass the Ethernet power signal.

摘要： A power over Ethernet (PoE) system has a reclassification functionality. The illustrative PoE system comprises a powered device (PD) and a power sourcing equipment (PSE) communicatively coupled to the PD. A classification identification component coupled to the PD encodes a classification value. A classification identification component can typically be implemented as a classification resistor, although any other suitable component such as a capacitor, inductor, register, or other structure or method can otherwise be implemented. The PoE system can further comprise a reclassification register in a non-volatile memory that stores a value indicative of a new classification state and a new classification identifier and a power switch that powers the powered device to a classification voltage. A PD controller is coupled to the powered device that reads the value indicative of the new classification state and, if the new classification state is asserted, reads the new classification identifier and sets classification according to the new classification identifier. If the new classification state is not asserted, the PD controller sets classification according to the classification identification component.

摘要： The present invention provides a method to at least partially power an Ethernet device from a plurality of balanced network power signals received through a network connection. This involves attaching the network device to the network, wherein network signals are received and contain both power signals and/or data signals. These network signals may be passed through surge protection and power-conditioning circuitry wherein the output of these circuits may be provided to a power absorbing circuit. This power absorbing circuit may separate the communication signal and power signal from the network signal. The communication signal may be passed to a network physical layer while the power signal may be passed to a power distribution module. Additionally, because certain embodiments may provide multiple pairs of network power signals to the power absorbing circuit, the current or power associated with each power signal must be sensed and balanced. This may be done with an active control circuit. The balanced power signals may then be supplied from the power absorbing circuit to the network-attached device in order to at least partially power the network-attached device.
