Power Mode Select the one of the following power modes:
• 802.3af. The port is powered in and limited to the IEEE 802.3af mode. A PD
that requires IEEE 802.3at does not receive power if the port functions in
IEEE 802.3af mode.
• Legacy. The port is powered using high-inrush current, which is used by
legacy PDs that require more than 15W to power up.
• Pre-802.3at. The port is initially powered in the IEEE 802.3af mode and,
before 75 msec pass, is switched to the high-power IEEE 802.3at mode.
Select this mode if the PD does not perform Layer 2 classification or if switch
performs 2-event Layer 1 classification.
• 802.3at. The port is powered in the IEEE 802.3at mode. This is the default
mode. In this mode, if the switch detects that the attached PD is not a Class
4 device, the PD does not receive power from the switch.
Power Limit Type The power limit type controls the maximum power that a port can deliver. Select
one of the following types:
• None. The port draws up to Class 0 maximum power in low power mode and
up to Class 4 maximum power in high power mode.
• Class. The port power limit is equal to the class of the attached PD.
• User. The port power limit is equal to the value that is specified in the
Power
Limit (W) field. This is the default setting.
Note: If a PD does not report its class correctly, use of these options can preserve
additional PoE power by preventing the switch from delivering more power than the
PD requires. However, depending on which option you select, a PD that does not
report its class correctly might not power up at all.
Power Limit (W) Enter the maximum power (in watts) that the port can deliver.
The range is 3.0–30.0W, with 0.1W steps. The default is 30W.
Detection Type The detection type specifies how the port detects the attached PD. Select one of
the following types:
• IEEE 802. The port performs a 4-point resistive detection. This is the default
setting.
• 4pt 802.3af + Legacy. The port performs a 4-point resistive detection, and if
required, continues with legacy detection.
• Legacy. The port performs legacy detection.
Timer Schedule If you set up a PoE timer schedule, you can assign it to the port by selecting the
schedule from the Timer Schedule menu.
For information about PoE timer schedules, see Set up PoE timer schedules on
page 411. By default, the selection from the menu is None.
If you want to remove a previously assigned timer schedule, select None from the
Timer Schedule menu.
