Description

PoE example 1

: 4 PDs are connected to FS116P (Port 1 – Port 4) consuming 50W, 

leaving 5W of power available. The PoE MAX LED lights. There is less than 7W 
available. The FS116P does not provide power to any new connected PD. The 5W 
remaining is reserved for power surges by the original PD devices.

PoE example 2

: Port 1– Port 4 all have PDs drawing 13W, for a total of 52W. Since 

the remaining power is less than 7W, the PoE MAX LED lights. If all of the PDs 
surge to 14W, exceeding the power budget (55W), Port 4 stops providing power 
since it has the lowest priority of the ports providing power. The power from Port 4 is 
allocated to the other ports. If the ports are plugged in at the same time, priority is 
based on port number. The PoE status LED for Port 4 turns yellow, and the PoE 
MAX LED turns off, since there is now more than 7W available.

Troubleshooting

Check that are using the NETGEAR power adapter supplied with your switch.

The Power LED is not lit.

The switch has no power.

•     

Make sure that the power cord is correctly connected to the switch.

•     

Make sure that the power adapter is connected to a functioning power outlet. If it 

is in a power strip, make sure that the power strip is turned on. If a light switch 

controls the socket, make sure that the switch is in the on position.

The Port LED for a connected device is not lit or stays on continuously.

There is a hardware connection problem.

•     

Make sure that the cables are securely plugged in at the switch and the device.

•     

Make sure that the connected device is turned on.

•     

If the Ethernet cable is connected to a NIC or other Ethernet adapter, make sure 

that the card or adapter is installed correctly and is working.

Make sure that the cable is less than 328 feet (100 meters).
