PoE considerations

The PoE and PoE+ power supplied by the switch is prioritized in ascending port 
order: Ports 1–24 support PoE and PoE+ with a total power budget of 380W.

If the power requirements for the attached powered devices (PDs) exceed 
the total power budget of the switch, the PD on the highest-numbered port 
is disabled to make sure that the PDs connected to the higher-priority, lower-

numbered ports are supported first.

A PD listed as an 802.3at PoE powered device does not necessarily require 

the maximum power limit of the specification. Many PDs require less power, 

potentially allowing more PoE ports to be active simultaneously. 

The following table shows the standard power ranges calculated with the 
maximum cable length of 328 feet (100 meters).

If a device receives insufficient PoE power from the switch, consider using a 

shorter cable.

PoE Troubleshooting

Here are some tips for correcting PoE problems that might occur:
•  If the PoE Max LED is solid yellow, disconnect one or more PoE devices to 

prevent PoE oversubscription.

•  For each powered device (PD) that is connected to the switch, the associated 

PoE LED on the switch lights solid green. If the PoE LED lights solid yellow, a 
PoE fault occurred and PoE halted because of one of the conditions listed in 
the following table.

PoE Fault Condition

Possible Solution

A PoE-related short circuit occurred on the port.

The problem is most likely with 
the attached PD.  Check the 
condition of the PD, or restart 
the PD by disconnecting and 
reconnecting the PD.

The PoE power demand of the PD exceeded 
the maximum level that the switch permits. The 
maximum level is 15.4 for a PoE connection or 
30W for a PoE+ connection

The PoE current on the port exceeded the 

classification limit of the PD.

The PoE voltage of the port is outside the range 
that the switch permits

Restart the switch to see if the 
condition resolves itself.

Mount the switch in a rack

We recommend that you use the brackets and screws that came with the switch.
1.  Attach the mounting brackets to the side of the switch.
2.  Insert the screws through each bracket and into the bracket mounting holes 

in the switch.

3.  Tighten the screws with a No. 1 Phillips screwdriver to secure each bracket.
4.  Align the mounting holes in the brackets with the holes in the rack, and insert 

two pan-head screws with nylon washers through each bracket and into the 
rack.

5.  Tighten the screws with a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver to secure mounting 

brackets to the rack.
