Planet 5-Port Hybrid PoE Solar PoE Switch with 1-Port 1000X SFP | BSP-115HP-5A

Hybrid Solar-Powered 5-Port Gigabit PoE Switch with SFP for Off-Grid Networks

Industry-leading Integration of PoE Technology and Renewable Power System
PLANET BSP-115HP-5A Solar PoE Switch is a solar-powered network switch that incorporates environmental, social and governance (ESG) principles. It can be charged by the inexhaustible and natural source of energy, such as solar, wind and hydroelectric power to conserve energy so as to economically power these remote IP cameras and wireless APs. The BSP-115HP-5A is equipped with 5 10/100/1000BASE-T copper ports. Port 1 supports 60-watt PoE and ports 2 to 5 support 802.3at PoE+ injector function. Besides, ports 4 to 5 also provide passive 24V/48V options. Using 24V PoE equipment will improve energy efficiency. When powered by a 24V battery, there is no need to go through the loss of lifting. A total PoE power budget of up to 65 watts and 1 extra 100/1000BASE-X SFP fiber port are especially used for such expansive applications as dams, forests, deserts, national parks, nature/animal protection areas and highways.

Zero-Carbon and Stable Power Supply
The 12V/24V lithium, lead-acid or lithium iron battery gets recharged by way of the BSP-115HP-5A where solar power is sourced. Thus, the BSP-115HP-5A will keep powering PD like wireless PoE AP without a cable and a wired camera connected to its port with a UTP cable. Its zero-carbon feature is made possible as the energy the unit gets is renewable. Most importantly, the operation of outdoor wireless IP-based surveillance can be continued into the night as the battery is charged during the day.

Multi-functional Solar PoE Switch that Supports PV, DC, and Battery Simultaneously
The Solar PoE Switch is a versatile device that supports simultaneous applications of solar (PV), DC, and battery power. Utilizing advanced solar charging control technology, even the voltage is different from DC input. It efficiently converts solar energy into power and provides stable and reliable DC power supply. It is ideal for applications requiring eco-friendly and energy-efficient solutions, such as remote communication base stations, surveillance systems, and network cameras. Its flexible design not only reduces operational costs but also diminishes reliance on traditional energy sources, thereby reducing environmental impact. The Solar PoE Switch represents not just technological innovation but also a substantial contribution to sustainable development, offering the applications a more stable and dependable energy solution.

Intelligent Powered Device Alive Check
The BSP-115 Series can monitor connected PD status in real time via PD alive check function. Once the PD stops working and responding, the BSP-115 Series will resume the PoE power and bring the PD back to work. It will greatly enhance the network reliability through the PoE port resetting the PD’s power source and reducing administrator management burden.

Ethernet Data Transmission Distance Extension
The DIP switch provides “VLAN” and “Extend” operation modes.

The “VLAN” operation mode features with port-based VLAN function that helps to prevent the IP camera’s multicast or broadcast storm from influencing each other.
In the “Extend” operation mode, the BSP-115HP-5A operates on a per-port basis at 10Mbps duplex operation but supports 25-watt PoE power output over a distance of up to 250 meters overcoming the 100m limit on Ethernet UTP cable. 
With this brand-new feature, the BSP-115HP-5A provides an additional solution for 802.3at PoE+ distance extension, thus saving the cost of Ethernet cable installation.

Multiple Battery Options for All Market Requirements
The BSP-115 Series features a variety of battery options, including the lead-acid, lithium, and lithium iron batteries. The lead-acid battery offers a cost-effective option while the lithium battery offers higher energy density and is lightweight, and the lithium-iron battery combines high energy efficiency with durability. The renewable PoE switch provides a flexible, reliable solution that ensures all applications can continue to run without a glitch.

Temperature Sensor for Battery Protection
The BSP-115 series is equipped with a temperature sensor for battery protection. When the sensor detects the battery temperature reaching above 70~75 degrees C, the PoE high-current power supply will be stopped to cool down and protect the battery.

Applications

Off-grid Solar-based Power Supply for Wireless & Wired PDs
During the day, solar energy can power the communication system and charge the battery, and at night, the battery uses the excess electricity generated by solar energy during the day to power the communication system, which builds a zero-carbon, green and stable communication system without any external energy.

Extension of Network Deployment with Gigabit Fiber port
With the 802.3bt PoE++ injector and 1000BASE-X SFP fiber ports, the BSP-115HP-5A supplies power to other devices, such as IP cameras where high-speed and stable data transmission can be made to a remote core network. It can extend the distance to a maximum of 120 kilometers between the BSP-115HP-5A and control center via fiber-optic link.
