ADC Introduces New TrueNet Midspan Power-over-Ethernet Controllers; Products Feature Redundant Powering and Dual Compatibility with IEEE 802.3af and Legacy Devices to Accelerate VoIP Deployment.MINNEAPOLIS -- ADC ADC - Aid to Dependent Children ADC - Area Defense Counsel (US military public defender) ADC - Automatic Drip Coffee (maker) ADC - Abyssinian Development Corporation ADC - Acadia Divinity College (Nova Scotia, Canada) ADC - Acoustic Device Countermeasure ADC - Acoustic Display Console ADC - Acquisition, Development, and Construction ADC - Active Directory Connector ADC - Active Document Container ADC - Active Duty Commitment (NASDAQ:ADCT) (www.adc.com) today introduced new TrueNet(R) Midspan Power-over-Ethernet (PoE (Power Over Ethernet) Transmitting DC power to the target device at the end of an Ethernet cable by carrying power in the unused 4/5 and 7/8 wires. It enables access points and other remote devices to be installed where there is no AC power outlet. See POE adapter.) Controllers featuring dual compliance with IEEE 802.3af and legacy Voice-over-IP (VoIP) devices as well as optional N+1 redundant powering capabilities. ADC will showcase these solutions at BICSI BICSI - Building Industry Consulting Services, International (now just BICSI: A Telecommunications Association) Spring Conference in Las Vegas, May 2-5, in booth #720/722 and at NetWorld+Interop 2005 in Las Vegas, May 3-5, in booth #839. ADC's TrueNet Midspan PoE Controllers allow enterprise network A geographically dispersed network under the jurisdiction of one organization. It often includes several different types of networks and computer systems from different vendors. managers to power VoIP phones, WiFi access points, IP security cameras, and other devices without upgrading or replacing Ethernet switches and structured cabling. The product's newest features accelerate VoIP deployment by overcoming significant powering obstacles traditionally faced by enterprise network managers: standards compatibility and redundant powering. "Before IEEE 802.3af standards, leading manufacturers developed VoIP telephones with various proprietary standards Specifications for hardware and/or software that are developed and controlled by one company. The most notable de facto, proprietary standards are Windows from Microsoft and the x86 family of CPU chips from Intel. Contrast with open standards. for line powering over Ethernet cabling," said John Schmidt, product manager for ADC. "ADC's TrueNet Midspan PoE Controllers automatically detect the presence of legacy VoIP devices and inject appropriate power, enabling enterprise network managers to efficiently deploy VoIP services." At NetWorld+Interop, ADC will conduct a live demonstration of the product's dual compatibility features by powering a legacy Cisco(R) 7960 IP Phone and an IEEE 802.3af compliant Cisco 7971G-GE phone via a single TrueNet Midspan PoE Controller. To support lifeline telephony requirements, ADC's TrueNet Midspan PoE Controllers feature field upgradeable N+1 redundant powering capabilities. Delivering up to 15.4 Watts of power per port and featuring redundant and load sharing Sharing the workload in two or more computers. 400-watt power supplies, the controllers ensure consistent fault-free powering for critical voice circuits. The redundant power supplies may be field upgraded and up to five panels can be daisy-chained and controlled via one modular SNMP card and a single IP address.
