Performance Meets Power: Choosing Between Tycon Systems® 30W and 60W 10G PoE Injectors
Performance Meets Power: Choosing Between Tycon Systems® 30W and 60W 10G PoE Injectors. As industries continue to adopt high-speed networking in off-grid, mobile, and battery-powered environments, Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology plays a critical role in simplifying installations and improving power efficiency. Tycon Systems® continues to lead in this space with two advanced DC-to-DC PoE injectors designed for reliability, performance, and flexibility: the TP-DC-12AT30-10G and the TP-DC-12BT60-10G.
Both injectors offer 10G data throughput, a wide input voltage range, and durable metal housings—but they are optimized for different power and application requirements. Here’s how they compare and how each can deliver maximum performance across industries.
TP-DC-12AT30-10G: Efficient Power for Moderate-Demand Applications
The TP-DC-12AT30-10G is a robust PoE+ injector designed for powering standard 802.3at (30W) devices through a DC power source, making it ideal for battery-based, vehicular, or solar-powered installations.
With a 10–30VDC input and efficient DC-to-DC conversion to 54VDC output, it ensures stable power delivery even under fluctuating input conditions. The DIN rail or wall-mount options simplify integration into network cabinets or control panels, while the metal housing enhances protection in demanding environments.
Key Benefits
- 30W PoE+ Output: Ideal for devices such as IP cameras, wireless radios, or VoIP phones.
- Dual DC Inputs: Adds redundancy and flexibility in power system design.
- Compact and Reliable: The metal enclosure and protection features (Over Current, Over Temperature, and Low Voltage Disconnect) make it reliable in remote or industrial environments.
- Energy Efficiency: Perfect for energy-conscious systems such as solar and battery-powered setups.
Best Applications
- Remote wireless installations
- Security systems
- PoE lighting
- Battery or solar-based network operations
For networks that require stable, mid-range power output, the TP-DC-12AT30-10G provides the perfect balance between performance and efficiency.
TP-DC-12BT60-10G: Maximum Power for High-Demand Devices
The TP-DC-12BT60-10G takes PoE power delivery to the next level, supporting the 802.3bt standard with up to 60W of PoE++ output. Like its counterpart, it runs on a 10–30VDC input and efficiently converts power to 54VDC output, but it delivers double the wattage, making it suitable for power-hungry devices and multi-port applications.
It supports 4-pair power delivery, ensuring consistent performance for equipment that demands higher voltage and current, such as PTZ cameras, high-performance wireless access points, or multi-radio backhauls.
Key Benefits
- 60W PoE++ Output: Powers high-demand networking devices, including advanced Wi-Fi 6 access points and large IP cameras.
- Four-Pair Power Delivery: Maximizes efficiency and power balance across the Ethernet cable.
- Industrial-Grade Design: Equipped with Over Current, Over Temperature, and LVD protections for reliable operation in harsh conditions.
- Future-Proof Investment: Backward compatible with 802.3at devices, offering flexibility for system upgrades.
Best Applications
- High-power wireless and surveillance systems
- Industrial automation
- Smart transportation infrastructure
- Power-intensive IoT devices
For organizations requiring high-wattage PoE solutions in mission-critical setups, the TP-DC-12BT60-10G ensures reliable and scalable power delivery to keep advanced systems running efficiently.
