M2M application examples
When an M2M SIM card is installed, the EXPLORER 540 uses the BGAN M2M service (see
BGAN M2M services on page 6).
If a PoE switch is not included in the connected M2M equipment, you must provide power
either through the LAN interface with a PoE injector or a PoE switch connected, or from a
battery connected to the DC input. The following sections show examples.
PoE injector
The picture below shows an example of an M2M application using a PoE injector to provide
the power to the EXPLORER 540 through the LAN interface. Note that the PoE injector must
comply with the requirements for PoE+ IEEE 802.3at type 2 class 4. The PoE injector is
connected to a power supply and “adds” power to the LAN connection for the EXPLORER 540.
For specifications and pinout for the LAN interface on the EXPLORER 540, see LAN interface
(X1 or X2) on page 115.
