Announcing Sifos’ New Low Cost PoE PowerSync Programmable Load for Volume QA and Manufacturing Testing Applications

Published

on

Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) challenges design and test engineers to evaluate multi-channel, “intelligent” DC power sources that are activated and deactivated through signaling protocols operating over several power delivery and polarity configurations. The application and management of DC power over multiple local area network connections must be completely transparent and non-disruptive to the traditional data transmission functions of those network connections.

ANDOVER, Mass., Feb. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — One-Box, Low Cost Solution

The PSL-3424M is a one-box platforms to facilitate analysis of Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) behaviors. The PSL-3424M is Sifos’ lowest cost, multi-port PSE test instrument supporting PSE loading and power stressing. Depending upon configuration, up to 12 ports can simultaneously load over 1200 combined watts, emulating 802.3at and 802.3bt single signature PD’s advertising Class 0 to Class 8. With per-slot multiplexing, up to 24 PSE ports can be connected enabling automated test strategies covering 24, 16, or 8 port PSE’s.

Key Features Include:

Connect up to 24 (2-Pair and/or 4-Pair) PSE portsSimultaneously Load up to 12 PSE portsProgrammable Per-Port Loading to over 100W per PortScalable: Configure as 4×2 (8) Ports, 8×2 (16) Ports, or 12×2 (24) PortsEmulate Class 0 – Class 8 PD’sLAN Data THRU port for packet and/or PHY testing under PoE LoadESD/EFT/Surge Hardened – Supports IEC 61000-4 Compliance TestingAutomation Development Environment with PowerShell PSAPairset Voltage Metering and Power DetectionLoad Current Configuration and MeteringProgrammable Load Transients and Inrush LoadingSmart and Quiet Thermal ManagementEmbedded Power Supply

Automation Ready

The PSL-3424M is provided with Sifos’ PowerShell PSA scripting environment that includes a variety of commands and utilities to make short work of evaluating PSE ports. A complete and extensible API for the PSL-3424M instrument including a robust command set that ranges from elemental resource configurations to high level utilities. PowerShell PSA can be integrated into broader Tcl environments that interlace traditional network transmission tests with PoE test enabling seamless integration of custom or standard PSE tests with existing Tcl-based test suites.

Features of Sifos High-End Testers

The PSL-3424M is managed over the LAN just like other members of the Sifos PSA-3000 family of PSE test instruments. The PSL-3424M runs cooling fans only when test port heating calls for it. An efficient cooling system then expels up to 1200 Watts without irritating, high frequency fans. The PSL-3424M is rack friendly and will tolerate equipment immediately on top and below the 3U sized instrument

Perfect Fit for Industrial PSE Testing

PSL-3424M test ports are ESD/Surge/EFT protected to IEC 61000-4 Level 3 standards allowing multi-port connections to PSE’s while they go through safety/compliance test procedures. Test ports provide flexible PD class emulation and power loading up to 100W per port. The instrument scales from 8 multiplexed PSE ports to 24 multiplexed PSE ports allowing lower cost solutions to smaller port-count applications.

Commercial Grade Test Equipment

Like all Sifos test equipment, the PSL-3424M is safety (CSA) and environmentally (CE mark) certified. The PSL-3424M will support packet traffic up to 10GBase-T rates on DC isolated THRU ports. All technical capabilities are fully specified in technical datasheets.

About: Sifos Technologies is the market leader in PoE (PSE and PDs) and provides Ethernet PHY (physical layer) automated test & measurement solutions for network equipment and electronic contract semiconductor, silicon providers, test labs, telecommunication service providers, system integrators, field service and IT departments.

By

NANNING, China, April 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — This is a report from china-asean-media.com.

The 14-day “2026 Vietnam-China Cross-Border Tourism AI Empowerment Cooperation and Exchange Program” successfully concluded on April 19 in Nanning, Guangxi. Co-hosted by the Department of Culture and Tourism of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region (China) and the Departments of Culture, Sports, and Tourism of Quang Ninh, Lang Son, Cao Bang, and Tuyen Quang provinces (Vietnam), the event brought together nearly 30 tourism officials and industry representatives from the four Vietnamese localities.

With the theme “Vietnam-China AI + Cross-Border Tourism Exchange and Cooperation,” the program combined expert lectures, case studies on AI applications, and field visits. Participants gained insights into ASEAN-China tourism policies, AI-driven cross-border cooperation models, and smart tourism technologies. Hands-on training enabled them to use AI tools for decision-making, product development, and destination branding.

The delegation conducted field studies in Nanning, Liuzhou, Guilin, and Hechi. They visited the China-ASEAN AI Innovation and Cooperation Center, the “Easy Visit Guangxi” platform, the No. Wang Cultural Industrial Park, and the BAO JUN base, experiencing Guangxi’s smart, industrial, landscape, and wellness tourism offerings.

A meaningful part of the program was retracing President Ho Chi Minh’s revolutionary footsteps in Guangxi, including visits to the former site of Yucai School in Nanning, the former residence of Ho Chi Minh in Liuzhou, and the “September 2” School site in Guilin. On April 17, all participants attended the launch ceremony of the 2026 Vietnam-China Border People’s Carnival in Nanning, witnessing the deep friendship and mutual support between the border communities of both nations.

At the closing ceremony on April 18, a cross-border tourism product design competition was held. The team from Quang Ninh won the Best Design Award, while teams from Lang Son, Cao Bang, and Tuyen Quang received Excellence Awards. Mr. Lưu Bá Mạc, Vice Director of Lang Son’s Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, praised the program for fostering practical cooperation and opening new directions for the “comrades and brothers” friendship between local authorities.

The program not only provided Vietnamese tourism professionals with valuable knowledge in AI and smart tourism but also laid a solid foundation for future cooperation in building shared tourism information platforms, developing smart products, and enhancing data connectivity. Both sides reaffirmed their commitment to advancing high-quality development of the cultural and tourism industry through AI, contributing to the strategic Vietnam-China community with a shared future.
