PoE considerations
ThePoEpowerthattheswitchsuppliestopowereddevices(PDs)isprioritized
inascendingportorder.IfthepowerrequirementsfortheattachedPDsexceed
thetotalpowerbudgetoftheswitch,thePDonthehighest-numberedport
isdisabledtomakesurethatthePDsconnectedtothehigher-priority,lower-
numberedportsaresupportedrst.
APDlistedasan802.3atPoE+powereddevicedoesnotnecessarilyrequire
themaximumpowerlimitofthespecication.ManyPDsrequirelesspower,
potentiallyallowingallPoE+portstobeactivesimultaneously.
Thefollowingtableshowsthestandardpowerrangescalculatedwiththe
maximumcablelengthof328feet(100meters).

IfadevicereceivesinsufcientPoEpowerfromtheswitch,considerusinga
shortercable.
PoE troubleshooting
HerearesometipsforcorrectingPoEproblemsthatmightoccur:
• IfthePoEMaxLEDissolidyellow,disconnectoneormorePoEdevicesto
preventPoEoversubscription.
• Foreachpowereddevice(PD)thatisconnectedtotheswitch,theassociated
PoELEDontheswitchlightssolidgreen.IfthePoELEDlightssolidyellow,a
PoEfaultoccurredandPoEhaltedbecauseofoneoftheconditionslistedin
thefollowingtable.
PoEFaultCondition PossibleSolution
APoE-relatedshortcircuitoccurredontheport.
Theproblemismost
likelywiththeattached
PD.Checkthecondition
ofthePD,orrestartthe
PDbydisconnectingand
reconnectingthePD.
ThePoEpowerdemandofthePDexceededthe
maximumlevelthattheswitchpermits.Themaximum
levelis15.4WforaPoEconnectionand30Wfora
PoE+connection.
ThePoEcurrentontheportexceededthe
classicationlimitofthePD.
ThePoEvoltageoftheportisoutsidetherangethat
theswitchpermits
Restarttheswitchtoseeifthe
conditionresolvesitself.
Mount the switch in a rack
Werecommendthatyouusethebracketsandscrewsthatcamewiththeswitch.
1. Attachthesuppliedmountingbracketstothesideoftheswitch.
2. Insertthesuppliedsmallscrewsthrougheachbracketandintothebracket
mountingholesintheswitch.
3. TightenthescrewswithaNo.1Phillipsscrewdrivertosecureeachbracket.
4. Alignthemountingholesinthebracketswiththeholesintherack,andinsert
theprovidedpan-headscrews(youcanchooseamongtwotypesof
pan-headscrews)withnylonwashersthrougheachbracketandintotherack.
5. TightenthescrewswithaNo.2Phillipsscrewdrivertosecuremounting
bracketstotherack.
