Note
PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment)
is a
device (switch, or hub for instance) that
will provide power in a PoE setup. The
maximum allowed continuous output power
per such device in IEEE 802.3af is 15.4
watts, in IEEE 802.3at is 30 watts and ultra
PoE is 60 watts
Note
PD (Powered Device)
such as an IP
phone, network camera or wireless access
point is a PoE-enabled terminal by PSE and
thus it consumes energy.

5. Hardware Installation
The following section describes the hardware features of
Ultra PoE Injector. Before connecting any network device
to the Ultra PoE Injector, read this chapter carefully.
5-1 Before Installation
The POE-172 is backward compatible with IEEE 802.3af
PoE and IEEE 802.3at PoE Plus standard. It is equipped
with an AC power cord with 100-240V AC input and
injects DC 56V power into the pin of the twisted pair
cable (pair 1/2 [+], 3/6 [-] and pair 4/5 [+], 7/8 [-])
for 60-watt ultra PoE injection.
Before connecting the POE-172 to your powered device
(PD), please check to ensure that your powered device
(PD) can accept 60-watt PoE power through pin 1/2 (+)
& 3/6 (-) and pin 4/5 (+) & 7/8 (-). Otherwise, it will
damage your powered device (PD).
Note
DO NOT
connect POE-173 POE port to
your non-POE network equipment Ethernet
interface. Otherwise, it will damage your
network equipment.
If there is difficulty in finding a power socket for AC-DC
adapter of your non-PoE network device, the Ultra PoE
Injector and POE-171S (Ultra PoE Splitter) can provide
you with DC power for this Ethernet device conveniently
and easily.
Note
The Ultra PoE Injector and POE-171S can
be installed in pair. However, the use of the
third-party device is allowed if the device
complies with IEEE 802.3at Power over
Ethernet Plus and a maximum of 30 watts
of output capability.
Note
Since the Ultra PoE injector’s PoE port
supports 56V DC (POE-172) or 50V DC
(POE-173) PoE power output, please check
and assure the Powered Device’s (PD)
acceptable DC power range is 56V DC
or 50V DC; otherwise, it will damage the
Powered Device (PD).
5-2 Ultra PoE Injector Installation
Due to the backward capability of IEEE 802.3at/af PoE
standard, the Ultra PoE Injector can directly connect
with any IEEE 802.3at/af end-nodes such as PTZ (Pan,
Tilt & Zoom) speed dome network cameras, color touch-
screen voice over IP (VoIP) telephones, and multi-
channel wireless LAN access points. The screen in Figure
2 is shown below.
