Hybrid Powered Fibre Explained: Deliver Power & Data Over 10km
Delivering reliable power and data to remote devices over long distances is a major challenge in modern network infrastructure.
In this webinar, Hexatronic and AMG Systems demonstrate how Hybrid Powered Fibre (InOne) enables long-distance PoE and remote connectivity up to 10km, using a single cable solution that reduces complexity, installation time, and total cost of ownership.
This session covers network design, power delivery, fibre infrastructure, and real-world deployment scenarios across perimeter security, utilities, smart cities, IoT, and industrial networks.
Our Partnership: Hexatronic + AMG Systems
To meet the growing demand for reliable power and data delivery over long distances, Hexatronic and AMG Systems have partnered to deliver a fully integrated network solution.
By combining Hexatronic’s InOne® Hybrid Powered Fibre with AMG’s industrial Ethernet switches and PoE technology, we enable a simplified approach to connecting and powering remote field devices.
This partnership removes the need for separate power infrastructure, reducing installation complexity, civil works, and total cost of ownership.
What This Enables
Together, Hexatronic and AMG provide a solution that supports a wide range of remote and distributed applications, including:
-
CCTV and perimeter security systems
-
Radar and sensor integration
-
Smart city infrastructure
-
Utilities and transport networks
-
Industrial IoT and remote monitoring
Using a single hybrid cable, organisations can deliver power and data over distances up to 10km, improving scalability, reliability, and deployment speed.
Why It Matters
Traditional network deployments often require separate fibre and power infrastructure, increasing cost and complexity.
With Hybrid Powered Fibre and industrial switching:
- Fewer cables and components are required
- Deployment is faster and more cost-effective
- Remote devices can be powered and connected in a single solution
- Networks are easier to scale and maintain
This makes the combined Hexatronic and AMG solution ideal for modern, distributed infrastructure projects.

FAQ
Typically 3–4 km depending on route complexity, extendable to around 6 km using midpoint installation.
Route complexity, bends, elevation changes, and duct quality all affect achievable distance.
Up to 150W on the standard model or 300W on the high-power model, plus 24V outputs for PLCs, alarms, and controllers.
Up to 150W on the standard model or 300W on the high-power model, plus 24V outputs for PLCs, alarms, and controllers.
Access points, cameras, radar, IoT devices, PLCs, gate controllers, and sensors.
Yes. InOne supports radar, IoT, industrial devices, and telecom equipment with both power and data delivery.
They can be, but many deployments use protective conduits, including hardened steel options, for better durability and protection.
Most current AMG switches are Layer 2+, with Layer 3 expected in future releases.
Up to 4 x 90W ports on an 8-port switch, often combined with 30W ports.
A browser-based drag-and-drop tool for designing networks, generating layouts, and creating bills of materials.
Yes. No data is stored, and designs can be saved or exported locally.
Not currently, but it is in development and expected in a future update.
Single-mode is usually the better choice for longer distances, stronger performance, and lower long-term cost.
Yes, but in many cases it is better to change the SFPs rather than install new multi mode cable.
No. The system operates at ≤110V DC (SELV), making it suitable for IT and network engineers.
Yes. AMG offers a wide range of SFPs for different fibre types and distances.
Yes. Switches can be supplied as part of a wider solution or as standalone products.
Only for blown fibre. Pullable, duct, or aerial cable options may not require specialist tools.
