About this Manual
This manual has been compiled with great care and the
information it contains has been thoroughly verified. The text
was complete and correct at the time of printing. Because of the
ongoing development of products, the content of the manual
may change without notice. Bosch Security Systems accepts no
liability for damage resulting directly or indirectly from faults,
incompleteness, or discrepancies between the manual and the
product described.
Important Safety Instructions
Read, follow, and retain for future reference all of the following
safety instructions. Heed all warnings on the unit and in the
operating instructions before operating the unit.
–The unit is intended only for installation in a Restricted
Access Location.
–Installation and removal of the midspan must be carried out
–AC Power Cord Set: Although the High PoE Midspan 60W,
Single port ships with one (1) 120 V power cord and one
(1) 230 V power cord, please note the following as it
applies to your region:
–The power cord must have regulatory agency approval
for the specific country in which it is being used (i.e.,
UL, CSA, VDE, etc.).
–The power cord must be a three-conductor type (two
current carrying conductors; one ground conductor)
terminated on one end by an IEC 60320 appliance
coupler (for connection to the midspan), and on the
other end by a plug containing a ground (earthing)
contact.
–The power cord must be rated for a minimum of 250
VAC RMS operation, with a minimum rated current
capacity of 5 Amps (or a minimum wire gauge of 18
AWG (0.75mm2).
–Midspans installed in Australia require power cords
with a minimum wire gauge of 16 AWG (1.0 mm2).
–A voltage mismatch can cause equipment damage and may
pose a fire hazard. If the voltage indicated on the label is
different from the power outlet voltage, do not connect the
midspan to this power outlet.
–The AC wall socket-outlet must be near the midspan and
easily accessible. You can remove AC power from the
midspan by disconnecting the AC power cord from either
the wall socket-outlet or the midspan appliance coupler.
–The PoE injector "Data In" and "Data & Power Out" ports
are shielded RJ45 data sockets. They cannot be used as
Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS) telephone sockets.
Only RJ45 data connectors can be connected to these
sockets.
–The Data In and Data & Power Out interfaces are qualified
as SELV (Safety Extra-Low Voltage) circuits according to
IEC 60950-1. These interfaces can only be connected to
SELV interfaces on other equipment.

must be collected and disposed of separately from household
waste material. Separate collecting systems are usually in place
for disused electronic and electrical products. In the United
States, please dispose of these units at your local communal
waste collection point or at a recycling center. In the EU, please
dispose of these units at an environmentally compatible
recycling facility, per European Directive 2002/96/EC.

System overview | en11

System overview
The High PoE Midspan 60W, Single port, AC in is a high-power
PoE (Power over Ethernet) device that provides power over
Ethernet cabling between an Ethernet (remote network) switch
and an AutoDome 7000 Series camera. It supports the
IEEE802.3at and IEEE802.3af standards, while doubling the
output power to 60 W. The midspan is designed to carry gigabit
Ethernet data and power over a standard CAT5e cable, delivered
through all 4 pairs:
–Alt A: pin 1,2 (-) and 3,6 (+)
–Alt B: 4,5 (+) and 7.8 (-)
Note: Do NOT use cross-over cable between the Data & Power
Out port and the AutoDome camera!
Note: The midspan is not a repeater and does not amplify the
Ethernet data signal.
Note: The Ethernet cable length must be less than 100 meters
from the Ethernet source to the AutoDome camera.
Installation must be made by qualified personnel and conform
to ANSI/NFPA 70 (the National Electrical Code® (NEC)), Canadi-
an Electrical Code, Part I (also called CE Code or CSA C22.1),
and all applicable local codes. Bosch Security Systems, Inc. ac-
cepts no liability for any damages or losses caused by incorrect
or improper installation.
The midspan can be placed on a desktop or mounted on a wall,
bench, or shelf using the rear side mounting holes.
Before mounting the midspan to a fixed location, note the
following:
–Do not cover the midspan or block the airflow to the PoE
with any foreign objects.
–Keep the midspan away from excessive heat and humidity
and free from vibration and dust.
–Ensure that the cable length from the Ethernet network
source to the terminal does not exceed 100 meters (333
feet). The midspan is not a repeater and does not amplify
the Ethernet data signal.
–No “on-off” switch exists; simply plug the midspan into an
AC power source.
Installing the Unit
Follow these steps in sequence to install the Bosch midspan.
1.Select the mounting location and surface. Ensure that the
selected surface will be able to support the weight of the
unit (400 g / 0.88 lb). Note that this unit is intended only
for installation in a Restricted Access Location.
2.Install two mounting screws in the selected mounting
surface, at a distance of 9.17 mm (3.61 in.) apart from the
center of each screw.
3.Align the mounting slots on the unit to the screws.
4.Proceed to the Connection chapter.
2013.03 | 1.2 | F.01U.279.929Installation ManualBosch Security Systems
The PoE ports “Data In“ and “Data & Power Out“ are shielded
RJ45 data sockets. They cannot be used as “Plain Old Tele-
phone Service” (POTS) telephone sockets. Connect only RJ45
data connectors (EIA 568A and 568B) to these ports.
The “Data In” and “Data & Power Out” interfaces are qualified
as “Safety Extra Low Voltage” (SELV) circuits according to IEC
60950-1. These interfaces can be connected only to SELV inter-
faces on other equipment.
1.Connect the midspan to an AC power outlet (100 – 240
VAC), using one of the two power cords supplied, or one
that has the appropriate ratings and specifications (see the
Safety chapter).
Note: The voltage of the power outlet must match the
voltage indicated on the midspan label.
2.Connect the Data In (input) port to the remote Ethernet
network switch.
3.Connect the Data & Power Out (output) port to the
Ethernet port on the AutoDome camera.
Note: Do NOT use cross-over cable!
