Base LAN PoE is an Ethernet controller base with PoE power supply support, enabling devices to easily connect to the internet. It supports RS485/RS232 communication and can be used as an Ethernet-to-serial server. Built with the W5500 fully hardware-based embedded Ethernet controller, the W5500 integrates a TCP/IP protocol stack, features 8 independent hardware sockets, a 10/100M Ethernet data link layer (MAC) and physical layer (PHY), offering a simpler internet connection solution for embedded systems. It supports PoE (Power over Ethernet) technology, allowing the base to be powered directly via a PoE hub/switch through the built-in PoE module without requiring an independent power supply. For quick deployment in industrial applications, the kit includes a metal rail and magnets for secure installation, and is equipped with HT3.96 terminals for RS485/RS232 electrical connections, meeting wired network access needs in production environments. The 6 pins of the HT3.96 connector are left floating by default, and you can choose to connect the RS232 or RS485 level conversion board as needed.
The below image shows the internal structure of the Base LAN PoE If RS485 or RS232 communication interfaces are required, solder the TTL-RS485 or TTL-RS232 adapter board with the matching pin header onto the corresponding pins of the motherboard.
