3.3  Wiring the Power Inputs
The 6-contact terminal block connector on the top panel of the IPOE-
171 series is used for two DC redundant power inputs. Please follow the 
steps below to insert the power wire.
Step 1: Insert Positive / Negative DC power wires into Contacts 1 
and 2 for POWER 1, or 5 and 6 for POWER 2.

Note
1. The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the 
range between 12 ~ 24 AWG.
2. As the DC input connector of the IPOE-171 series is 
polarity protected, connecting Positive / Negative DC 
power wires to the wrong pins will not damage the unit.
4. Mounting Installation
This section describes how to install the industrial device and make 
connections to it. Please read the following sections and perform the 
procedures in the order being presented.
Note
In the installation steps below, this manual uses PLANET 
Industrial Switch as an example. The steps for PLANET 
Industrial Slim-type Switch, Industrial Media/Serial 
Converter and Industrial PoE devices are similar.

3.4  Wiring the Fault Alarm Contact
The fault alarm contacts are in the middle of the terminal block 
connector as the picture shows below. After inserting the wires, the 
IPOE-171 series will detect the fault status of the power failure and 
then form an open circuit. The following illustration shows an application 
example for wiring the fault alarm contacts.
Figure 7: Fault Pin of Terminal Block.
Note
1. The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the 
range between 12 ~ 24 AWG.
2. Alarm relay circuit accepts up to 24V, max. 1A currents.
Fault Alarm Contacts
The Fault Alarm Contacts are
energized (CLOSE) for normal
operation and will OPEN when
failure occurs

5. Hardware Installation
The following section describes the hardware features of the IPOE-171 
series. Before connecting any network device to it, please read this 
chapter carefully.
5.1  Before Installation
Before your installation, it is recommended to check your network 
environment. If there is any IEEE 802.3bt device that needs to be 
powered on and works normally, the IPOE-171 series is the solution 
that supplies power to this Ethernet device conveniently and easily. If 
there is diculty in nding a power socket for the AC-DC connection to
your non-IEEE 802.3at/bt networked device, the IPOE-171 series with 
POE-173S / IPOE-173S can supply DC power to this Ethernet device 
conveniently and easily.
Note
1. In the installation steps below, this manual uses 
the IPOE-171-60W as an example. Except the input 
voltage, the steps for the IPOE-171-95W are similar.
2. Note that the input power range of the IPOE-171-60W 
is  48 ~ 56V DC and the input power range of IPOE-
171-95W is 12 ~ 48V DC.
5.2  IPOE-171-60W Installation
1. Connect the power ranging from 48V DC to 56V DC to the 6-pin 
terminal block of the IPOE-171-60W. The power LED will be steadily 
on.
2. Connect a standard Ethernet cable from an Ethernet switch or PC 
workstation to “Ethernet” port of the IPOE-171-60W.
3. Connect the long cable to the “Ethernet+DC” port.
4. The IPOE-171-60W can directly connect with any IEEE 802.3at/bt 
end-nodes, such as PTZ (pan, tilt & zoom) IP cameras, PTZ speed 
dome cameras, color touch screens, Voice over IP (VoIP) telephones 
and multi-channel wireless LAN access points which support IEEE 
802.3at/bt In-line Power over Ethernet port.

Figure 9: Architecture of connected IEEE 802.3at/bt device
Once the IPOE-171-60W detects the existence of an IEEE 802.3at/bt 
device, the PoE-in-Use LED indicator will be steadily on to show it is 
providing power.
Note
1. According to IEEE 802.3at/bt Power over Ethernet, the 
IPOE-171 Series will not inject power to the cable if not 
connected to IEEE 802.3at/bt device.
2. Depending on the length of cable, the PoE power which 
PD receives is different.
