This module preforms two functions, it provides a 2.1mm power jack (center positive) so regulated power can be supplied over the network cable and it also converts RJ-11/12 modular plugs into RJ-45 connectors. Which makes it an ideal interface between RJ12 versions of the DS9097U-S09 or LINK buss masters and 1WRJ45 wired systems. Since the unit is supplied with a dual RJ45 connector RJ-45 versions of the LINK are also supported.

The module can pass through the regulated +12V DC supply line and also supply regulated +5 Volts @ 50 ma for modules that require that voltage depending on how you set the solder paste jumpers on the board. A on board rectifier prevents accidental conection of center negative power sources (the rectifier may be optionally bypassed if desired). A Power LED indicates the power status.

The board has the installer settable active data line clamp and TVS and diode data line protection scheme used in other LP series modules.
