HX5G2003NL

Overview

The HX5G2003NL is a dual-port Power over Ethernet (PoE) transformer module manufactured by Pulse Electronics. Designed for board-mount surface mount technology (SMT) applications, it supports 5G and 4P PoE standards with a power rating of 60W. The component features a 1:1 turns ratio and utilizes gull-wing terminals for secure PCB attachment. It operates within a frequency range of 1 MHz to 125 MHz and includes integrated shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference. The module is rated for industrial temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C, ensuring reliability in demanding network infrastructure environments.

Feature Summary

• Supports 5G and 4P PoE standards with 60W power handling capability
• Dual-port configuration with integrated magnetic shielding
• Surface mount gull-wing terminal design for automated assembly

Applications

• 5 Gigabit Ethernet network interfaces
• Power over Ethernet powered devices requiring high wattage
• Industrial networking equipment operating in extreme temperatures

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet revision and RoHS compliance status directly with Pulse Electronics or authorized distributors before procurement. Confirm that the gull-wing package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the selected component meets the specific 5G and PoE standards required by your system design. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number to avoid confusion with similar non-PoE variants in the HX series.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring simultaneous data transmission and high-power DC delivery over Ethernet cables. The dual-port architecture simplifies layout for multi-port switches or routers. Consider the thermal performance at maximum load conditions given the 60W rating. Verify compatibility with your PHY chip's magnetics specifications to ensure signal integrity at 5G speeds.

Part Context

This component belongs to the HX series of LAN transformers from Pulse Electronics. It is specifically engineered for high-speed data communication networks. Unlike standard audio or signal transformers, this unit integrates common mode chokes and center taps necessary for Ethernet differential signaling. It serves as a critical interface between the physical layer transceiver and the external cabling infrastructure.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the HX5G series that may offer updated packaging or enhanced thermal ratings. Verify pinout compatibility if replacing with components from other manufacturers. Ensure any alternative maintains the same 1:1 ratio and 60W power rating to prevent system failure.
