L-com Releases Cat5e/6 Patch Panels with PoE+ Interfaces

NORTH ANDOVER, Mass. (February 20, 2018) – L-com Global Connectivity, a preferred manufacturer of wired and wireless connectivity products, announced today that it has launched a new series of high-performance Ethernet patch panels with PoE+ support.

L-com’s new PoE+ Ethernet patch panels were designed to handle PoE+ electrical loads while maintaining high-quality power and data transmission output. The PoE+ compliance of these new patch panels is in accordance with IEEE 802.3 and IEC 60512-99-001 for mating and un-mating under electrical load.

These new PoE+ patch panels are ideal for use in data center, LAN, MDF/IDF and Gigabit Ethernet networking applications. They feature 50 micro-inch, gold-plated contacts in the RJ45 jacks, integrated cable management and IDC 110 terminal blocks for fast and easy cable terminations.

“Our new PoE+ patch panels are an excellent addition to any PoE+ network where the consolidation and patching of multiple Cat5e or Cat6 cables is required. These high-performance panels were designed to integrate seamlessly in PoE+ networks, saving installation time and money,” said Manuel Martinez, Product Manager.

L-com’s new PoE+ Ethernet patch panels are in stock and available for immediate shipment.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
