Example Diagram

For remote automated testing, Telebyte provides the Model 600 Layer 1 switching modules to automatically switch in devices to the test bed.

This example details the Telebyte test bed made up of a single channel Model 4950-001 Cable Emulator for 10BASE-T1L testing with Power over Data Line (PoDL) and two Telebyte Model 600-SM-1-1-32 (1×32) switches.

The test bed contains three Type E 10BASE-T1L 8-port SPE Power Switches and 24 Powered Devices. To save time this combination of Power Switches and Powered devices may be switched into the testbed automatically with the switch to ensure the SPE link is functioning with PoDL.

The 600 layer 1 switching modules may be automated with a command line interface to switch the 24 different Power source ports into the cable emulator. A second switch connects to the 24 different powered devices. 

The entire combination of source ports and load ports may be tested to ensure interoperability and compatibility with PoDL classification, quality of service and performance testing.
