The rule that I see being a problem is R38. It says that regulated circuits < 5A should be wired with 22AWG wire. You can find 22 gauge ethernet cable, but it's not very common. |

Re: pic: 2015/2016 Robot Radio Comparison
Sorry to crash the party, but does anyone have a link to an ethernet switch that is actually reasonably smaller than the original D-Link? Not much of a... net gain (badum tish) in real estate if the new system takes up... you know... MORE space.

Re: pic: 2015/2016 Robot Radio Comparison
Different radio. POE wasn't an option on the DLINK. If they decide to allow POE as an option, they will change the rule. Since the radio has been problematic in the past, I expect they will only allow options that have been thoroughly tested.

I am confident that the 2016 robot rules will address Power Over Ethernet one way or the other, either to make it explicitly legal or to restrict it. |

This assumes that the 2016 rules permit a network switch between the radio and the roboRIO. I can imagine being required to have them connected directly with no intervening devices. |

Re: pic: 2015/2016 Robot Radio Comparison
Here is another POE injector. It is small, but not a switch, so you gain very little. It is just an easy way to get power into the Ethernet.

Why would this be an issue? Plug both the roboRIO and the switch directly into the radio. |

Re: pic: 2015/2016 Robot Radio Comparison
It would save a wire if the roboRIO could go through the switch. Then you would only have to run 1 ethernet cable to the new radio, instead of 1 to the switch, and 1 to the roboRIO.

Here are the POE injectors sold by the company that makes these AP:

It also runs on 5v. Last edited by marshall : 13-10-2015 at 13:15. |

Re: pic: 2015/2016 Robot Radio Comparison
My company and I are currently in the process of designing and prototyping such a switch. The goal is to have something with the smallest possible footprint/weight as possible, have 2-4 ports, and possibly also be a POE injector. As it progresses I'll post updates on here, although it won't be move to production until the rules are released and certain requirements/restrictions are laid out.

You realize rules will not be posted until kickoff? A direct conversation with First might be in order.
