MANAGING POWER OVER ETHERNET DEVICES
Power over Ethernet
(PoE) provides power to devices over existing LAN cabling, without updating or modifying the
network infrastructure. Power over Ethernet removes the necessity of placing network devices next to power sources. Power
over Ethernet can be used with:
•
IP Phones
•
Wireless Access Points
•
IP Gateways
•
Audio and video remote monitoring
Powered Devices are devices which receive power from the DGS-3100 series device power supplies, for example IP phones.
Powered Devices are connected to the DGS-3100 series device via Ethernet ports.
PoE is enabled only on the DGS-3100-24P and DGS-3100-48P devices.
