Automated house 2.0 – #21 wall installing Our Loxone iPad with PoE Texas Adaptor – part 1

All building work stopped on the 24th March, because of the Covid-19 lockdown, however there’s still some things we can be getting on with, particularly around plans for the electrical 2nd fix.

Wall Mounted iPad

I don’t believe wall mounted touch screens are the method a lot of of us would truly select to manage our houses a lot of of the time. However, I did want to make sure we have one controller, sited centrally in the house, which we’ll be able to utilize to gain access to the entire wise house system. This is quickly achievable utilizing the Loxone app running on an iPad.

Just as we were going to buy the tablet, Apple revealed a new model. This was an chance to get hold of one of the outgoing 6th gen iPads from the Apple refurb store as well as save a few quid.

We likewise chosen up one of the last 9.7″ Loxone Wallmounts (they have considering that released an updated design for the current 10.2″ iPads). I selected the Anthracite version over the Silver one as I much like the method its dark frame blends with the black bezels of the iPad.

PoE to iPad

Next it was time to check out exactly how to link the tablet to supply data in addition to charging while on the wall.

Thankfully keeping an iPad plugged into the mains all the time no longer kills its battery. considering that iOS 11.3 Apple have added a function to secure cells that are regularly being charged…

iOS includes a fee administration function to preserve battery health and wellness when iPad or iphone XS, iphone XS Max, or iphone XR is linked to power for prolonged periods of time, such as when utilized in a kiosk or a point of sales system, or kept in a fee cart.
تفاحة

With all our UniFi PoE kit, Power over Ethernet seemed perfect for the task, a single cord to supply power as well as data to the iPad. This is not the least expensive option, however potentially worth it for simplicity plus a incredibly steady data connection as well as no possibility of any type of WiFi funny business.

Options right here are limited, however this niche product fitted the expense completely so we bought one of these GAF-Lightning-PD from PoE Texas.

It’s around $90 as well as supports 802.3af PoE to power the iPad whilst providing 10/100 Ethernet over the exact same single cable.

You can now utilize one Ethernet cord to prolong power as well as data to your iPad as much as 328 ft away at quick data speeds! This PoE adapter is created to provide both 5 volts 12 watts of constant power plus wired 10/100 data to iPad.
PoE Texas

It is fairly little (6″ x 1″ x 1.5″) as well as we will be able to site it in a narrow space behind the block wall that the iPad mounts to (check out this page on exactly how to set it up).

It works well in testing supplying power as well as data while simplifying the cabling. The ideal angled Lightning cord fits into the Loxone frame with a bit space to spare. all in all the Texas PoE gadget is a fantastic solution.

iPad PoE Alternatives

I likewise thought about the Gigabit + PoE Adapter for iPad (L6-NETPOE) from Redpark. The USB2 flavour of Ethernet it employs maxes out at around 225 mbps. It’s a lot more costly than the PoE Texas gadget when you add the needed cabled too, however some may like the additional speed it offers.

خيارات أخرى

And right here are some less costly choices which may be worth thinking about too. These options still send power as well as data to your iPad over a Lightning cable, nevertheless they do not utilize PoE, however need an outside power supply instead.
