Broadcom Corp. announced two four-port PSE controllers, the BCM59101 and BCM59103, the latter being “pre-IEEE802.3at-compliant.” Both chips are pin-compatible, facilitating product migration for OEMs. They integrate power MOSFETS, dc-dc controllers, ac disconnect, and LED control circuitry. Pricing is $10 each in 10,000-unit lots.

On the equipment side, Phihong USA introduced a 60-W midspan, the POE60U-560G, and a 52-W PoE Gigabit high-power splitter, the POE60D, for high-power wireless access points that require up to 52 W. The splitter, a gigabit-compatible device designed to be mounted right next to a powered device, performs connect identification as well as separates the power and data. Both are designed around the specifications of the proposed IEEE 802.3at standard as of March 2007.
