Powering a 60W device using a Vi0015
(Optional)
The Vi2216LT can provide up to 37W on multiple ports. As long as the 300W total
power budget is not exceeded, it is possible to supply up to 74W to a device.
This can be accomplished using the Vi0015 cable, which combines the power of two
ports while maintaining the standard wiring configuration.
The Vi0015 has two color coded cables. They are black and blue. The black cable
carries only power. The blue cable carries power and data. To connect the Midspan
to the switch, use the port that is connected to the blue cable to connect the
partner port to the switch.
Using the Vi0015 cable with the Vi2216LT, up to 5 cameras (devices) that require
60W can be powered.
Remember when using either any of our Midspans or combination
Midspan/Extenders with a PoE switch, it is recommended you turn off any PoE from
the switch.
