(Optional) Setting up a PoE system
CAUTION:
If you do not use the PoE feature, verify that the PoE power switch on the power module is off.
Power over Ethernet (PoE) enables a power sourcing equipment (PSE) to supply power to powered
devices (PDs) through power interfaces (PIs) over twisted pair cables. Commonly used PDs include
IP telephones, APs, and web cameras.
The following PoE types are available:
•
Type
1
—Power delivered by a single port: 0 to 15.4 W; voltage range: 44 V to 57 V; maximum
current: 350 mA. This PoE type provides power to classes 0 to 3 PDs.
•
Type
2
—Power delivered by a single port: 0 to 30 W, voltage range: 50 V to 57 V, maximum
current: 600 mA. This PoE type provides power to classes 0 to 4 PDs.
Components for setting up a PoE system
To set up a PoE system for the switch, the following components are required:
•
A switch that supports PoE.
•
Interface modules that support PoE.
•
PoE power modules
A switch that supports PoE
The S7506X-PoE, and S7510X-PoE switches support PoE.
