Galvanic isolation on DC switches

Thu Oct 22, 2015 4:36 am

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a galvanic isolation in the DC Switches?

Spesificaly either the WS-12-DC and/or WS-12-250-DC

If I should have a guess, the former does not but the powersupply of the latter would function as an Galvanic Isolation?? Or is my understanding of it fully flawed??

The reason for asking is that the towerowners here often require us to have a galvanic isolation barrier between our outside tower equipment and the shared batterybank inside the hut.

So I just wonder if the WS-12-250-DCs powersupply could be considered a galvanic isolation barrier, or if I need to use an external converter or something else in addition.

Grateful for any insight to the matter! :)

Cheers.

Currently, the DC switch products do not any galvanic isolation barrier between input power & output POE power.

We are discussing this for the next generation of products down the road depending on how much feedback we get requesting it.

Thanks.

OK, I see! Thx for the swift reply! :)

It would be awsome to have it integrated, then I wouldnt need a separate box(and possible failurepoint) in between in the sites/Towers that require this. :)

So maybe if any1 else require this they could give it a shout in this forum string to let us know if any1 else need this?!

Cheers

Hi again,

just wondering if Galvanic isolation as discussed above was implemented in newer versions?

Cheers
