Outdoor PoE backup system
The Tycon UPS-PL1248-18 is a solar-ready outdoor enclosure that delivers uninterrupted 48V PoE power to wireless base stations, surveillance cameras and remote sensors. It accepts PoE input over CAT5 cable and an optional 12V solar panel up to 140W, with solar taking precedence when available. The integrated 12V 17Ah AGM battery isolates connected equipment from damaging power-line surges while providing continuous backup power.
Passive cooling with surge isolation
The sealed weatherproof and UV-resistant enclosure operates without active cooling, relying on its rugged construction to dissipate heat in outdoor environments. Battery charge controllers protect against over-charge and over-discharge, while the internal electronics draw from stored battery energy rather than direct line power. This topology eliminates surge exposure and keeps acoustic signature at zero during normal operation.
Pole or wall mount with dual power outputs
The unit mounts on a pole or wall and provides both a 48V PoE output rated at 30W and an unregulated 12V terminal output rated at 18W for auxiliary devices. A single CAT5 run carries data and PoE input to the RJ45 data/PoE input port, while the RJ45 data/PoE output connects the powered device. Generous interior space allows installers to house additional customer electronics inside the same weatherproof enclosure.

Questions about this item
How do I connect the solar panel and PoE inserter to the UPS-PL1248-18 enclosure?
Mount the weatherproof enclosure outdoors. Run the CAT5 cable from the included high-power PoE inserter to the RJ45 DATA/PoE input port. Connect an external 12VDC solar panel up to 140W to the solar input terminals. The charge controller manages both sources, with solar taking precedence when available.
When will the internal 12V 17Ah AGM batteries need replacement?
The valve-regulated sealed lead-acid AGM batteries typically last three to five years in outdoor standby use. The integrated charge controller protects against overcharge and over-discharge to maximise lifespan. Plan replacement when runtime drops below your required backup window for the 48W total load.
What is the maximum continuous power the UPS-PL1248-18 can deliver before voltage drops?
The system supplies up to 48W total: 30W via the PoE output and 18W from the unregulated 12VDC terminal. Sustained loads above this limit will cause the battery to discharge faster than the PoE or solar inputs can replenish it.
