The MI-305 is used between an active medical device and an Ethernet network or a non-medical device, such as Apple/Android TV or Hi-Res Audio Systems (RJ45). In accordance with the IEC EN 60601-1 standard, devices and systems are safely galvanically isolated. In accordance with the requirements of IEC 60601-1 (edition 3.2), the network isolator MI-305 has two independent protective measures (2 MOPP) for the patient and is therefore ideally suited for standard-compliant galvanic isolation of Ethernet-based signal interfaces within the patient environment.
MI-305 affords a convenient method of creating 4.5 KV isolation to equipment located in an Ethernet cabling system making it ideal for hospital and medical laboratory environments. Waiving a network isolation could result in severe damages to you and your in-patients. In that case a failure of a device anywhere in the connected system - medical or non-medical may cause high stray currents and heat losses or break protective conductors and destroy life-supporting technologies. Therefore, especially in medical applications all connected devices must comply with the DIN EN 60601-1 Standard for electrical security. And devices compatible to this standard usually cost a dear price. The Network Isolator now minimizes these risks to a well-tolerated degree by keeping currents outside of the treatment locations. In additional its small price fits even into tight budgets.
The network isolator MI-305 was developed to protect against incalculable currents via the data lines. This network isolator enables the galvanic network separation of electrical devices and systems according to DIN EN 60601-1. The galvanic network separations are passive, electronic components without their own power supply. They behave completely transparently in the data network; therefore, the installation of drivers or additional software is not necessary. Commissioning is done by simply inserting it into an existing network cabling. An external power source is not required for operation. The key components of MI-305 has been tested for medical devices, according to IEC 60601-1 and DIN EN 60601-1 as well as IEC 60601-1-2 and DIN EN 60601-1-2. Only UL94-V0 materials were used to manufacture the MI-305. The MI-305 network isolator is equipped with a dielectric strength of 4.5 KV and offers full IEEE 802.3 compatibility.
Meets IEC 60601-1 Specifications for Use in Patient-Care Vicinities
If you could NOT hear the improvement in sound quality after plugging the device into your network. You may NOT need to send it back immediately, pls consider to allow this device to pass data (burn-in) 2 to 3 weeks before it performs the audio optimally
MI-305 Frequency Range
Using a network isolator ensures galvanic isolation of a copper-based Ethernet data wire and thus prevents transmission of leakage and unwanted stray currents between parts of an electrical system. Based on electromagnetic induction Ehternet data signal is transmitted while high currents and voltages are blocked to protect patients, users and devices. Due to passive, electronic components MI-300DG Ethernet isolators do not require any extra power source to perform. They behave completely transparent in any data network. Network insulators in IT
In order to operate IT devices safely in critical environments, it is, next to using isolation transformers, required by IEC 60601-1 standard to physically isolate the network connections - by using a network isolator. If this is not done, the sum of leakage and stray currents - caused by additional devices connected to the data network - can quickly exceed allowed and safe limits. The consequences are hum loops that interfere with telephone and network connections - and in certain cases they can even destroy them. In particularly unfavourable constellations, humans and animals can even be endangered by electric shocks or fires can occur. The right use is important
