SCALANCE XR324-4M PoE product characteristics
Connection options of the SCALANCE XR324-4M PoE and XR324-4M PoE TS switches
The switches are partly modular devices and all have 24 ports.
●
16 fixed ports on the base device:
–
Ports P1 to P8
8 PoE-compliant gigabit ports (RJ-45 jacks with securing collars) for connection of end
devices or other network segments.
Non PoE-compliant end devices can also be connected to the PoE-compliant RJ-45
jacks because the switches check that the end devices are suitable for the PoE
function before applying the power.
–
Ports P9 to P16
8 gigabit ports (RJ-45 jacks with securing collars) for connection of end devices or
other network segments (no PoE).
●
8 modular ports via 4 module slots:
4 media modules each with 2 ports are combined optically or electrically via the slots S1
to S4 depending on the application. End devices and other network segments are
connected according to the media modules being used.
