5. Hardware Installation

5.1 Before Installation

The POE-E304 is installed between the PSE and the PD; it is powered

by PSE and forwards the Ethernet data and remaining PoE power or an

external power supply to the PD. It can be installed easily by just Plug

and Play without aecting the data transmission performance.

Note

1. To provide you with better PoE power and data

extension quality, we strongly recommend that you use

“Solid UTP Cable” when installing the POE-E304.

2. The POE-E304 can be installed with a third-party device

if the device complies with IEEE 802.3af/at standard.

5.3 Connecting POE-E304 to PD

Step 1: Connect the additional Cat5e/6 cable that will be used to

connect to the remote PD to the “PoE Out” port of the

Gigabit PoE Extender.

Step 2: The "PoE Out" port is also the power injector which transmits

DC voltage to the Cat5e/6 cable and transfer data and power

simultaneously between the PSE and PD.

Step 3: Once the Gigabit PoE Extender detects the existence of an

IEEE 802.3af/at device, the “PoE-in-Use” LED indicator will

be lit steadily, showing it is providing power.

Note

1. If the connected device is not fully complying with IEEE

802.3af/at standard or in-line power device, the PoE-in-

Use LED indicator of the Gigabit PoE Extender will not

be lit steadily.

2. According to IEEE 802.3af/at standard, the Gigabit

PoE Extender will not inject power to the cable if not

connected to a standard IEEE 802.3af/at device.

5.2 Connecting POE-E304 to PSE

This section describes how to install Gigabit PoE Extender and make

connection to it. Please read the following descriptions and perform the

procedures in the order being presented.

There are 5 RJ45 ports in the Gigabit PoE Extender, of which the “PoE

IN” port functions as "PoE (Data and Power) input" and the four

”PoE Out” ports function as "PoE (Data and Power) output".

Step 1: Connect a standard Cat5e/6 UTP cable from PSE, such as

PoE++ switch, PoE++ injector hub and single port PoE++

injector, to the “PoE IN” port of the Gigabit PoE Extender.

Step 2: The PSE delivers both Ethernet data and PoE power over UTP

cable to the Gigabit PoE Extender.

Note

1. When the PoE-in-Use LED turns steady orange,

it means the Gigabit PoE OUT is supplying power

successfully from PSE.

2. If the PoE-in-use LED is not lit, please check the

remote PSE or the cable connecting to a PC or a

network device to see if the cable is correct.

Caution

Never connect any non-standard PoE PSE to the

Gigabit PoE Extender or else it will damage the device

permanently.

5.4 PoE Power Distribution

The POE-E304 can obtain a maximum of 95-watt PoE power from

IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ input port and supplies a maximum of 65-watt

PoE power budget to four PoE output ports, extending both the reach

of Gigabit Ethernet Data and IEEE 802.3af/802.3at PoE over the

standard 100m (328 ft.) Cat 5/5e/6 UTP cable to up to 200m at the

same time.

Class 4 PD@25-watt 2 units

Class 3 PD@15-watt 4 units

Note

1. The PoE Output Budget means the 4-port PD

aggregated power output. The aggregated power

consumption will be below 65 watts if with IEEE

802.3bt PoE++ PSE.

2. If the PoE output, whose power source is IEEE

802.3at PoE+, is more than 25 watts, the device will

be shut down.
