PoE
24-Port 10/100 + 2-Port Gigabit Switch with Webview and Power over Ethernet
PoE
This switch can provide DC power to a wide range of connected devices, eliminating the need for an additional
power source and cutting down on the amount of cables attached to each device. Once configured to supply
power, an automatic detection process is initialized by the switch that is authenticated by a PoE signature from
the connected device. Detection and authentication prevent damage to non-802.3af compliant devices.
The PoE tab includes links to the following screens.
• Power Config
• Power Port Config
• Power Port Status
• Power Status
Power Config
A maximum PoE power budget for the switch (power available to all switch ports) can be defined so that power
can be centrally managed, preventing overload conditions at the power source. If the power demand from
devices connected to the switch exceeds the power budget setting, the switch uses port power priority settings
to limit the supplied power.
Specify the desired power budget for the switch.
