Hardware Guide
Input/Output Ports
Ethernet ports
Device is compatible with passive (non‐standard) Power over Ethernet. The board accepts voltage input from 8
to 30 V DC. It is suggested to use higher voltages for power over long cables because of better efficiency (less
power is lost in the cable itself and power supply is more efficient).
See
Connector Index
for pinout of the standard cable required for PoE. All cables made to EIA/TIA 568A/B
cable specifications will work correctly with PoE. Note that this port supports automatic cross/straight cable
correction (Auto MDI/X), so you can use either straight or cross‐over cable for connecting to other devices.
