  • Modbus RTU distribution box PoM | 10×RJ45 24VDC 1.5A + 12×RJ12 3.3VDC 0.3A | DIN rail | IP20 | 0…60°C | Sentera Controls | DLDBM22

    DLDBM22 – a Sentera Controls DIN rail Power over Modbus (PoM) distribution box: 10 RJ45 connectors with Modbus RTU and 24 VDC and 12 RJ12 connectors with Modbus RTU and integrated 3.3 VDC supply. A single cable supplies both data and power to each device.

    Key idea:
    The box is the “distribution board” of the Sentera Modbus system: power and the Modbus line come into it, and cables fan out in a star from it to sensors, controllers and regulators. No software or configuration.
    Connections
    10 × RJ45 (24 VDC) + 12 × RJ12 (3.3 VDC)
    Max. current
    1.5 A total (3.3 VDC – up to 0.3 A)
    Power supply
    24 VDC via Modbus (PoM)
    Installation / protection
    DIN rail, IP20

    Operating principle

    The box is mounted on a DIN rail, and one RJ45 socket is fed with 24 VDC together with the Modbus RTU (RS485) signal, e.g. from a Sentera power module. Devices are connected to the other sockets: RJ45 (1–2 +24 VDC, 3–4 A, 5–6 /B, 7–8 GND) – 24 VDC powered, RJ12 (1–2 +3.3 VDC, 3 A, 4 /B, 5–6 GND) – 3.3 VDC devices.

    The box generates the 3.3 VDC voltage from 24 VDC. The total distributed current is up to 1.5 A (24 VDC and 3.3 VDC combined), of which up to 0.3 A is for the 3.3 VDC RJ12 connectors; the power is 36 W at 24 VDC and 1 W at 3.3 VDC; no configuration is needed.

    Result – up to 21 devices receive power and Modbus communication from a single input, and green LEDs at the RJ45 and RJ12 sockets immediately show where voltage is present. With an operating environment of 0…+60 °C, the box is intended for heated rooms and indoor panels.

    Benefits DLDBM22?
    Neat star-topology Modbus and power distribution in the panel – faster installation with factory-made UTP cables and fewer wiring errors.

    Manufacturer documentation

    Original manufacturer documentation – technical data, wiring diagrams and installation instructions.

    Main functions

    • 10 × RJ45 with 24 VDC – For Sentera PoM devices – a single UTP cable for data and power.
    • 12 × RJ12 with 3.3 VDC – integrated 3.3 VDC source for devices that need a low voltage.
    • No configuration needed – switch it on and it works.
    • LED indication – the presence of power is visible at a glance.
    • DIN rail – installed in the panel next to the power module.
    • Star topology – each device is connected with its own UTP cable from a single point – easier fault finding.
    • Separate 3.3 VDC limit – RJ12 connectors – up to 0.3 A, so the power budget is calculated clearly.

    Where is it used?

    • Ventilation and HVAC automation panels with many Sentera Modbus devices
    • Power and communication for sensors, sensor-controllers, HVAC controllers and speed controllers
    • Star connection of devices over long distances
    • Systems with 3.3 VDC and 24 VDC Sentera devices
    • Heated technical rooms and indoor automation panels (0…+60 °C)
    • Equipment networks of offices and schools

    On-demand operation

    For internal control panel manufacturers.
    A compact solution for heated rooms where 0…+60 °C is sufficient.
    For room unit network installers.
    3.3 VDC devices connect to RJ12 and 24 VDC devices to RJ45, using factory-made cables.
    For school and office ventilation designers.
    A clear current budget: 1.5 A in total, of which 0.3 A is for the 3.3 VDC part.

    Practical application

    If twelve 3.3 VDC devices and several 24 VDC controllers have to be connected in a heated technical room, then the DLDBM22 serves them from a single PoM input, but the total current of the 3.3 VDC devices must not exceed 0.3 A, and that of the whole box 1.5 A.

    Application guide: how it is used in practice

    The DLDBM22 always distributes the PoM line – only the connected equipment differs:

    Site What is connected Result Installer's note
    Ventilation panel of an office building Sentera power module → RJ45; sensors and controllers → other RJ45 All devices are powered and accessible via Modbus Add up the currents of all devices – ≤1.5 A
    3.3 VDC devices Devices with an RJ12 plug → RJ12 sockets Low-voltage devices receive 3.3 VDC and Modbus Never insert an RJ12 plug into an RJ45 socket
    System with an internet gateway DIG-M-2 / DIGWM → single RJ45 The whole system is accessible via SenteraWeb Include the module current
    Commissioning and adjustment CNVT-USB-RS485 converter → free RJ45 Configuration from a computer The converter does not use the RJ45 power contacts

    How to choose PoM distribution and power supply

    Requirement Recommended model
    6 RJ45 devices, surface mounting, IP65 MDB-M-6 (6 × RJ45, 1.5 A)
    Panel: 10 × RJ45 24 VDC + 12 × RJ12 3.3 VDC, -30…+85 °C DMDBM22 (DIN, 1.5 A)
    Panel: 10 × RJ45 24 VDC + 12 × RJ12 3.3 VDC (up to 0.3 A), 0…60 °C DLDBM22 (DIN, 1.5 A / 0.3 A) ← this model
    24 VDC PoM supply from 85–264 VAC mains + RS485 repeater PDM-8-MB (2 × 24 VDC / 20 W)
    Rule: add up the currents of all connected devices (24 VDC and 3.3 VDC) – the total ≤1.5 A, the 3.3 VDC part ≤0.3 A. For outdoor or damp environments choose the MDB-M-6 (IP65), for power from 230 VAC – PDM-8-MB.
    When to choose another solution: for surface mounting and 6 devices – MDB-M-6 (IP65); for PoM power from the mains – PDM-8-MB; for a wider operating temperature range (-30…+85 °C) – DMDBM22.

    Pros

    • 22 connectors in one DIN module
    • Integrated 3.3 VDC source
    • No configuration needed
    • LED indication
    • Star topology with UTP cables

    Cons / limitations

    • IP20 – in control panel only
    • Total current is limited to 1.5 A, 3.3 VDC – to 0.3 A
    • Operating environment 0…+60 °C – for unheated panels choose the DMDBM22
    • It does not generate 24 VDC itself – a PoM power supply is required, e.g. PDM-8-MB
    • Mixing up RJ12 and RJ45 plugs can damage 3.3 VDC devices

    Safety and installation notes

    • Installation and connection are to be carried out by a qualified electrician or automation specialist with the power disconnected.
    • Attention: do not insert an RJ12 plug into an RJ45 socket – devices requiring 3.3 VDC may be damaged.
    • Do not exceed a total current of 1.5 A and a 3.3 VDC current of 0.3 A.
    • Use in an environment of 0…+60 °C, 5–85 % rH, non-condensing.

    Suitable when you need:
    • to distribute Modbus and 24 VDC power to many Sentera devices;
    • to power 3.3 VDC devices via RJ12;
    • to tidy up the panel wiring with a star topology.
    Check before use:
    • the sum of the currents of all devices (≤1.5 A);
    • how many RJ45 and RJ12 connections are needed;
    • the power of the PoM power supply.
    Important reminder: The DLDBM22 is not a power supply – 24 VDC is fed to it from a PoM power module.
