Tiny 51W PoE PD with Unrivalled Efficiency
Leveraging over 27 years of expertise as a renowned designer and manufacturer of Power over Ethernet (PoE) modules and other advanced electronic power modules–Silvertel introduces their latest PoE++ Ag59600 series. The most compact PoE Powered Device (PD) in its class, measuring at only 40mm x 25mm x 16mm, the Ag59600 delivers up to 60W peak and 51W of continues power to end connected devices over an Ethernet connection. Offering two SKUs with varying voltages, the Ag59612-LPB (12V Output) and Ag59600-LPB (24V Output)–this highly efficient and high power PoE PD delivers 94% operating efficiency and excellent thermal management for IoT, IIoT, SMART, and other connected applications.
Why Choose the Ag59600 PoE PD?
The Ag59600 PoE IEEE802.3bt Class 6 (51W) modules were specifically developed to support 4-pair powering (4PPoE) for designers requiring higher power than PoE+, but not the maximum power (100W) provided by PoE++. Products operating at the maximum power levels defined by IEEE802.3bt, typically require large form factor components to deliver the power. However, Silvertel was able to reduce the module footprint considerably using a surface mount (SMT) format and their expert design capabilities. Utilizing gold block terminals to promote good thermal transfer to the host PCB, the Ag59600 series minimizes wasted energy (efficiency of 92-93% for the 12V variant) and provides the necessary Identification, Classification, Isolation, and DC-DC Conversion features required of a PD. Additionally, output voltage adjustment is possible with an external resistor.
Operating at an industrial temperature range of -40oC to +85oC, the Ag59600 incorporates over-voltage, over-current, and thermal protection to provide a robust PoE solution. Jam packed with essential features, the Ag59600 promotes rapid time to market and requires minimal, low-cost external components to get started.

Comprehensive Ag59600 Evaluation Tools and Resources
The Ag59600 series includes two evaluation boards (EVBs) (EVALAg59612-LPB and EVALAg59624-LPB) for testing and evaluating the Ag59612-LPB and Ag59624-LPB SMT PoE++ PD modules. These evaluation boards are compatible with Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) that supplies power over spare or data pairs and can also be used with Silvertel’s Ag6130 or Ag6800 PSEs. In addition to the EVBs, Silvertel offers application notes, schematics, and rapid engineering and customer support to set circuit and system designers up for success.
