PowerDsine Announces Industry's First 48-Port Power over Ethernet Midspan; High Density, Condensed 48-Port PoE Solution Designed for Large VoIP Systems.FARMINGDALE, N.Y. & HOD HASHARON Hod HaSharon (הוד השרון "Splendor of the Sharon" in Hebrew) is a city in the Center District of Israel. Officially declared a city in 1990, Hod HaSharon was created from the union of four neighboring small towns: Magdiel, Ramatayim, , Israel -- PowerDsine(TM) (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :PDSN PDSN Packet Data Serving Node (Nortel Networks) PDSN Public Data Switched Network ), a pioneer in Power over Ethernet Power over Ethernet or PoE technology describes a system to transmit electrical power, along with data, to remote devices over standard twisted-pair cable in an Ethernet network. (PoE) solutions, announced today the launch of the 6548 PoE Midspan, the industry's first 48-port PoE Midspan solution. This cost-effective solution is designed to save companies rack space while deploying large-scale Voice over IP (VoIP) systems. With the 6548 PoE Midspan, companies can upgrade their network by incorporating PoE without replacing the existing Ethernet Switches, thus saving cost and time associated with a VoIP roll out. The 6548 Midspan, which is being demonstrated at PowerDsine's Booth #532 at Voice on the Net conference in San Jose, California San Jose (IPA: /ˌsænhoʊˈzeɪ/) is the third-largest city in California, and the tenth-largest in the United States. It is the county seat of Santa Clara County. , incorporates a unique mechanical design concept that provides twice the port density in a 19" rack mountable, 1U device. IT managers save 50% of rack space compared to the current solution of installing two 24-port PoE midspan models. This 6548 Midspan is part of a new generation of PowerDsine's 6000 Midspan family and supports remote powering of VoIP phones as well as Wireless LAN A local area network that transmits over the air typically in the 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz unlicensed frequency band. It does not require line of sight between sender and receiver. Wireless base stations (access points) are wired to an Ethernet network and transmit a radio frequency over an area (WLAN See wireless LAN. WLAN - wireless local area network ) Access Points and IP-based security cameras. The PowerDsine 6548 Midspan provides safe and cost-effective power distribution and is compliant with the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. 802.3af PoE standard. For large installations of VoIP Phones, PowerDsine's 48-port PoE Midspan provides the benefits of all Midspan solutions of saving the time and cost of installing separate power cabling and AC outlets, as well as eliminating the need for a dedicated UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) for individual devices. In a large VoIP installation it is possible to utilize one UPS to provide centralized battery back-up for an entire enterprise IP telephony The two-way transmission of voice over a packet-switched IP network, which is part of the TCP/IP protocol suite. The terms "IP telephony" and "voice over IP" (VoIP) are synonymous. system in the event of a power failure. "The 48-port midspan solution is the first 1U 48-port PoE midspan on the market. Prior to our 48-port solution, large enterprises had to purchase multiple midspans in order to support their large-scale VoIP deployments. The 48-port solution takes less space on the rack and is more cost effective," said Igal Rotem, PowerDsine's CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. . "I believe that the market will embrace the affordable and compact 6548 that delivers 48 ports of PoE in half the rack space needed." The PowerDsine 6548 midspan has an advanced remote management version that enables IT administrators to remotely monitor the PoE Midspan over a local area network using a Web browser The program that serves as your front end to the Web on the Internet. In order to view a site, you type its address (URL) into the browser's Location field; for example, www.computerlanguage.com, and the home page of that site is downloaded to you. . One of the most beneficial features is the remote power enable/disable functionality on each of the Midspan ports, supporting "hard resets" of remote terminals such as WLAN Access Points and VoIP Phones. Availability Samples of the PowerDsine 6548 PoE Midspan are currently available with general availability in May 2005. About Power over Ethernet Technology PoE is a technology for wired Ethernet, the most widely installed local area network technology in use today. PoE allows the electrical power necessary for the operation of each end-device, to be carried by data cables rather than by separate power cords. It minimizes the number of wires that must be used in order to install the network, resulting in lower cost, less downtime, easier maintenance and greater installation flexibility. About PowerDsine PowerDsine(TM) (NASDAQ:PDSN) designs, develops and supplies integrated circuits, modules and systems that enable the implementation of Power over Ethernet in local area networks, providing the capability to deliver and manage electrical power over data network cables. PowerDsine offers integrated products and system solutions to communications equipment manufacturers in the telecom and datacom industries who incorporate them into, or bundle them with, their products.
