LABEL DESCRIPTION
PoE Mode Select the power management mode you want the Switch to use.
• Classification - Select this if you want the Switch to reserve the Max Power (mW) to
each PD according to the power classification of the PD. If the total power supply runs
out, PDs with lower priority do not get power to function.
• Consumption - Select this if you want the Switch to manage the total power supply so
that each connected PD gets a resource. However, the power allocated by the Switch
may be less than the Max Power (mW) of the PD. PDs with higher priority also get more
power than those with lower priority levels.
Port This is the port index number.
PD Select this to provide power to a PD connected to the port.
If left unchecked, the PD connected to the port cannot receive power from the Switch.
PD Priority This field is only available on the PWR model but not available for the Gigabit or mini-GBIC
ports.
When the total power requested by the PDs exceeds the total PoE power budget on the
Switch, you can set the PD priority to allow the Switch to provide power to ports with higher
priority.
Select Critical to give the highest PD priority on the port.
Select High to set the Switch to assign the remaining power to the port after all critical
priority ports are served.
Select Low to set the Switch to assign the remaining power to the port after all critical and
high priority ports are served.
