Technical Guide | HelixNet IP Network Guidance Page 16
In general, depending on the number of devices on a network, users will experience
some latency. The table below describes what you can expect over powerline or IP.
Specification Value
Latency on Powerline 30-80ms (Depends on cable type and length, and
how many devices are connected. The greater
the number of devices, the greater the latency.)
Latency over IP Network
75-80ms Beltpack-to-Beltpack (Powerline)
30-35ms Beltpack-to-Beltpack (Ethernet)
40-60ms Beltpack-to-4Wire (Powerline)
30-35ms Beltpack-to-4Wire (Ethernet)
30-35ms HMS-to-HMS (linked transport of audio)
Bandwidth Used 300kbps per active Talker
IP Version IPv4
PoE
Specification
We have designed all HelixNet devices to comply with the IEEE 802.3af
states up to 15.4 W of DC power on each port. These devices require no more than 12.95W to
operate. (15.4W delivered from the power source with some allowance for loss in the cable).
Ensure the total wattage on the PoE switch can deliver to the total number of PoE devices
connected. Most PoE switches SHARE the total wattage across all ports.
The following devices can be powered by PoE:
- HelixNet Remote station (HRM-4X)
- HelixNet Speaker station (HKB-2X)
- HelixNet II Beltpack (HXII-BP) - the HXII-BP
only uses 4W of PoE power
This IEEE 802.3af standard RJ45 PoE pinout chart
shows what pins carry power for the BP.
