PoE Clocks
PoE Clocks
A PoE clock is a time clock with an Ethernet communications type for
which all power supplied to the clock comes directly from the ethernet
cable. No a/c power is needed.
Clock Models
PoE is available on the following clock models:
• V800
• V850
• IQ 1000
• IQ 500
• IQ 400
• IQ 300
PoE is not supported for the ETC 100 clock model.
Specifications
In order to use PoE, your network must be set up so that the clock’s
Ethernet cable runs into a switch, router or hub that supports PoE func-
tionality. Note that this functionality
is not standard on network devices.
This device must be IEEE 802.3af compliant.
In order to prevent loss of data in the event of a power outage or surge,
the network device that the time clock is connected to should be con-
nected to a UPS or surge protector.
Clock Installation
The instructions for installing a clock with PoE support are virtually
identical to the instructions for installing a clock of the same model with
standard A/C power.
