Ramsey’s STE10GBE Ethernet interface provides 10GBASE-T copper Ethernet using standard CAT6A or CAT7 cables. The interface is also backwards compatible with 5GBASE-T, 2.5GBASE-T, 1000BASE-T, 100BASE-T, and 10BASE-T, and provides RF isolation of more than 90 dB at all speeds. It auto-detects and passes 802.3 af/at PoE at all speeds. Single-hole mounting maintains 100% shielding. It is physically interchangeable with the other three Ramsey PoE interfaces which use single-hole mounting.
Comparing STE10GBE and STE10GBE1: STE10GBE provides PoE mode detection to tell you if PoE is using mode A, Mode B, or both Mode A and Mode B. STE10GBE1 does not provide the mode detection but provides all other PoE and 10 Gigabit Ethernet functions as well as being a versatile 8 line data interface for other data protocols. STE10GBE’s PoE Mode Detection circuitry may interfere with other than Ethernet data protocols. If you need to know what PoE mode is being used then you definitely want STE10GBE. If you don’t need to know what PoE mode is being used then STE10GBE1 may be a better solution because it allows other protocols to pass through the interface. This makes STE10GBE1 a more versatile interface. Please review the datasheet you’ll find in the downloads tab of each product page for more information.
