9. PoE Service Analyzer Application 

 

The PowerSync Analyzer 3.2 software release includes a fully automated test application and reporting tool for testing 
PoE Service to a PD.   This application allows each PSA test port to function as a highly sophisticated service analyzer 
at the 802.3af PD interface (or service outlet). 
 
The 

PoE Service Analyzer

 application is accessible through either PSA Interactive or PowerShell.   This section will 

introduce the types of testing performed by the PoE Service Analyzer and the associated reporting available.   It will 
also present configuration alternatives including support for “in-band” instrument control from a remote host.   Finally, 
it will overview the additions to PSA Interactive and PowerShell that access the PoE Service Analyzer. 

 

9.1. 

PoE Service Access Tests 

 

The 

PoE Service Analyzer

 combines PowerSync Analyzer test ports with specialized application software to enable 

the most comprehensive and fully automated testing available for PoE analysis and qualification at a Powered Device 
service access point.   The tests available go well beyond standard power-up and line voltage measurements found in 
low cost, hand-held analyzers.  The PoE Service Analyzer will fully assess 

interoperability risks

, 

safety hazards

, and 

PoE 

performance limitations

 at the connection to any Powered Device. 

 
The PoE Service Analyzer provides fully automated testing in 3 categories: 
 

Basic Service Tests

 evaluate the basic Power-over-Ethernet connection, reporting connection information such as 

powered pairs (including multiple PoE sources), power polarity, and the ability of the PoE service to power up typical 
(and nominal) Class 0, Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3 Powered Devices*. 

 

Parameter

Range of Outcomes

ALT A+B (redundant) 

POLARITY: 

Power Polarity (per Powered Pair) 

MDI(positive) /  
MDI-X(negative) 

 

 

Parametric Tests

 report a number of parameters of the PoE service that are relevant to interoperability of all PD’s at 

the PoE service outlet.  Additionally, certain safety related behaviors of the PoE service are analyzed.   Information 
collected includes line voltages (DC and AC) at power extremes, detection signature range verification, rejection 
signature range verification, inrush and overload tolerance of the PoE connection, disconnect timing, and overload 
timing response of the PoE connection.  In performing these tests, the PowerSync

®

 Analyzer is utilized to emulate a 

wide range of IEEE 802.3af compliant steady state and transient Powered Device behaviors.
