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 maximum power for each PD
according to the PD’s power class and priority level. If the total power supply runs out, PDs
with lower priority do not get power to function. In this mode, the maximum power is reserved
based on what you configure in
Max Power
or the standard power limit for each class.
•
Consumption
– Select this if you want the Switch to supply the actual power that the PD
needs. The Switch also allocates power based on a port’s
Max Power
and the PD’s power
class and priority level. The Switch puts a limit on the maximum amount of power the PD can
request and use. In this mode, the default maximum power that can be delivered to the PD is
30 W (IEEE 802.3at Class 4) or 22 W (IEEE 802.3af Classes 0 to 3).
Continuous
PoE
Select
ON
to guarantee continuous power supply to the connected PDs while the Switch is
restarting after a warm reboot. The Switch will NOT perform a power cycle on the connected PDs.
If you do a cold reboot, the Switch also restarts the connected PDs.
