Example of Configuring Port Extender Interfaces with a Maximum Power of 15000 and 5000 mW
The following example sets the maximum allocated power to 15000 mW on interface peGigE 0/0/1 and 5000 mW on
interface peGigE 0/0/2 interface peGigE 0/0/3 is not configured. The default value of 30000 mW is the maximum power
that you can allocate to a device.
This configuration has the following PoE topology:

Setting the Threshold Limit for the PoE Power
Budget
To set the global threshold limit of the total power available for PoE on the port extender, use the power budget global-
threshold pe
pe-id stack-unit unit-number threshold-value command in Configuration mode.
This command has the following parameters.
• pe pe-id — Enter the keyword PE and specify the port extender ID. The range is from 0 to 255.
• stack unit unit-number — Enter the keywords stack unit and specify the stack unit number of the port extender.
The range is from 0 to 7.
• threshold-value — Enter a value between 20 and 99. The default value is 90 (90 percent).
• Set the global threshold limit of the total power available for PoE on the port extender. You must be in Configuration mode.
