BL-6000 PowerSenseTM 24 Port
Modular Multiport InLine Power Hub
Safely and efficiently provide
power over LAN Data cabling
for VoIP phones, Wireless
Networking access points
and other remote access
devices .
Rackmount Chassis
Complete w/24 Ports
The PowerSenseTM In-Line Power Hub from
Red Hawk provides a safe and efficient way
to provide power to VoIP Phones, Wireless
LAN Access Points, Web Cameras and
other LAN Devices without the use of an
external power supply for each device.
Power is supplied over the existing LAN
data cabling system. This greatly improves
the range of installation locations for such
devices, no longer requiring them to be
located near a power outlet. It also adds an
unprecedented level of safety and reliability
for powered LAN devices.

The PowerSense
rack-mount chassis powering up to 24
devices. Each 8 port module is
Hot-swappable so that modules may be
added to the chassis without powering
down the unit. If an individual power port is
damaged due to a lightning strike or power
surge, the module bank may be hot
swapped out without powering down the
chassis or disconnecting the other devices
attached to the other power ports in the
chassis.
Hub is a 24 port
Layer 3 Switch
PowerSense BL-6000
MidSpan Hub
When used with an uninterruptible power
supply, the PowerSense
non-stop power for up to 24 connected
devices. Continuous operation of powered
LAN devices is assured, while costly
downtime is avoided. The PowerSenseTM
Hub also eliminates the need for costly
uninterruptible power supplies to be
installed for each powered LAN device,
saving time and extra expense.
The PowerSenseTM Hub is tailored to
provide maximum value in VoIP network
applications. External power supplies
normally required for VoIP phones become
unnecessary. Power is now supplied by the
PowerSenseTM Hub System to the phones
directly over the existing LAN cabling
infrastructure. A device detection circuit
provides invaluable protection from
over-voltage damage if an incorrect device,
such as a laptop computer, is accidentally
attached to a powered network port.
PowerSense™ operates on Category 5, 5e
or 6 grade LAN Data Cable at standard
Ethernet distances. The BL-6000 series
supports powered devices requiring the
IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet Protocol.
