Overview
The Fanvil PN1 is a pair of 2-wire converters that turn an existing two-wire cable, such as an old phone line, into a network link with PoE power. It suits hotels, apartment buildings, villas and older buildings where pulling new network cable is hard or costly.
Is it right for you?
Choose it if you want to connect one PoE device (an IP phone, camera or door station) at the far end of an old phone or two-core cable. To feed many 2-wire phones from one point, a PN8 or PN24 2-wire PoE switch fits better.
Key features
- Sends network and power over two wires, reusing phone (PSTN) or two-core cable
- Up to 300 m with network and power, up to 1,600 m for network only (depends on wiring and interference)
- Standard PoE output (IEEE 802.3af/at) for the connected device
- The two units are identical: no master or slave end
- Works with Fanvil PN8 and PN24 2-wire PoE switches
- Plug and play, desktop or wall mounting
What else you need
- A network switch or router port at the near end
- A PoE-powered IP device at the far end
- A working two-wire cable between the two points (CAT 5e, 24 AWG, RVV 2 x 0.5 or similar)
Installation
Connect one PN1 to your network and the power adapter, and the other to the device at the far end of the two-wire cable. Each unit can sit on a desk or be fixed to a wall.
