Installing the PoE Adapters
Important Overview:
You should connect up the PoE Adapter in the following sequence in order to avoid any
damage to your Ethernet Equipment.
1. Attach the RJ-45 connector from the BPU
2. Attach the Power Adapter
3. Verify the BPU is powered by visually checking that the external LED is illuminated.
4. Only after confirming step 3 above, attach the RJ-45 jumper cable between the PoE adapter and the
Ethernet Equipment.
Before selecting an electrical outlet for use in powering the BridgeLINK-Pro, verify that the electrical outlet is
non-switched (for example, it is not attached to a wall switch).
BPU Ethernet Port Jack
BPU Ethernet Port Jack
One 10BaseT port on the PoE Adapter allows a connection to the BPU. This port is labeled
BPU
Ethernet Port
and
MUST NOT BE CONNECTED TO ANY OTHER ETHERNET DEVICE
. The power that
this port supplies drives the BPU but will damage customer Ethernet Equipment. Therefore, it is always
recommended that the BPU Ethernet Port is connected first and that the BPU powered “on” before
connecting to the Ethernet Equipment.
