4.1. Device Power

The SerDes media converter comes with a power supply adapter cable for this device. This device can be powered using an external DC supply. Ensure that the voltage is between 6V-40V and is rated for at least 1 Amps.

Power Consumption:

Power consumption will vary depending on how the unit is powered and what the unit is powering, typical power consumption is around 100mA at 13v with no cameras, at 13v each camera is around 200mA so the customer PoC circuit will need to supply a minimal of 500mA of steady state current.

Note: Power can be supplied in two ways:

  1. By external 2 pin to barrel jack connector

  2. Customer controller deserializer is able to supply power to RAD-Phobos, depending on the customer controller power circuit it should be able to power two cameras as well.

    Note: Port0 is the only port that will accept PoC power from the customer controller Deserializer, to power up either cameras and RAD-Phobos
