What must be ensured for each power inserter in system design regarding current requirements?

For each power inserter in system design, it's critical to ensure that the current does not exceed both RF/AC ports' power-passing specifications. This is important because power inserters operate by allowing DC power to pass through RF signals without causing signal degradation. If the current exceeds the power-passing specifications of the RF and AC ports, it can lead to overheating, damage to the equipment, and potential failure of the system components.

Maintaining current within the specified limits ensures optimal performance and reliability of the inserter and connected devices. This safeguard is essential in preventing excessive loads that might compromise the integrity of the system, which can affect signal quality or even cause failures in the network.

Each RF/AC power-passing specification reflects the device's design limitations; adhering to those specifications protects the functionality of the entire system.
