2、 HDBaseT(PoH) Cables, UL 4299 covers the evaluation of 4-pair LAN cable to carry100 watts of power (0.5 amperes at a nominal 50 volts) in a Power overHDBaseT (PoH) configuration without exceeding the temperature rating ofthe cable. It also ensures that the cable will meet the performancerequirements

13、nce with the test proceduredescribed in 4.2. The temperatures measured are used as the basis for the Cable Elevated TemperaturePerformance Test, Section 5.4.1.3 A cable that complies with the Cable Heating Test at 0.5 amperes as described in UL 444 or UL 13need not be subjected to this cable heating

14、 test provided that the temperature rise data at 0.5 amperesper conductor is available for the Cable Elevated Temperature Performance Test, Section 5.4.2 Test procedure4.2.1 The cables shall be arranged in a tightly packed bundle consisting of 7, 61, or 192 cables. Theseven cable bundle shall be arr

15、anged in a hexagonal densest packing structure which represents theworst case thermal dissipation situation. For the 61 and 192 cable bundles, the inner 37 cables shall bearranged in a hexagonal densest packing structure which represents the worst case thermal dissipationsituation. The remaining cab

16、les shall be evenly distributed to form the rest of the cable bundle. The bundleshall be placed in a 1.83 m 5 cm (6 foot 2 inches) long commercially available non-metallic conduit(Schedule 40) with the minimum diameter needed to install the bundle without putting pressure on thecables. Each end of t

17、he conduit shall be filled with insulation.4.2.2 All of the conductors in the cables shall be electrically connected in series to a power supplycapable of providing 0.5 amperes. It is permitted to electrically divide the conductors into two or morecircuits, each with its own power supply, to obtain

18、the required current. The cables are operatedcontinuously until thermal stabilization. Thermal stabilization is considered to exist when three successivereadings, taken at 15 minute intervals, are within 1C of each other and indicate no further rise above thechanges in ambient temperature.4.2.3 The

19、temperatures shall be measured on the outer jacket and conductor insulation of the centercable at the midpoint of the cable. In addition, temperatures shall be measured on the jacket andconductor insulation on the center cable 0.6 m (2 feet) on each side of the center thermocouple forreference purpo

20、ses.4.2.4 Temperatures are to be measured by means of thermocouples that are not larger than 0.21 mm2(24 AWG) and not smaller than 0.05 mm2(30 AWG). When thermocouples are used in determiningtemperatures, it is common practice to employ thermocouples consisting of 0.05 mm2iron and constantanwires wi
