Applies To

This information applies to

  • IPxx11 with mSata slot (IP311, IP411, IP511, IP811, IP0011, IP3011)
  • mSata modules for the IPxx11 should consume less than 2500mW to avoid high temperatures in the gateway.
  • The powerconsumption depends on the IO activity of the card, usually it is higher during write.
  • Larger mSata modules also need more current.
  • Some mSata modules reduce throughput if the temperature is too high.
  • Write endurance is another important parameter to consider when selecting a mSata module
  • mSata state can be checked with the linux smartmontools package


Note: This article DOES NOT APPLY to IP0013 and IP6013 SSDs! For information to those devices, refer to this article.

More Information

Modules tested in 2016

The modules where tested by writing a 5GByte file with the linux DD command. The write speed and POE current consumption were measured.
