INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL CLFE(X)IPS
Hardware Setup
Please follow the following steps to install the Midspan:
» Connect an AC power cable to the Midspan
» Use either a Serial (DB9) or a USB cable to connect the Midspan to the Host PC.
» Connect a PoE powered device (PD) to one of the Midspan ports using a Cat5/6 cable terminated in RJ45
connectors.
The Midspans are set to “Auto” mode by the factory. In this mode the Midspan works as a plug and play device and automatically detects the PD and provided requested PoE power.
GUI Installation Procedure
Important Note: By running the GUI software you are accepting all terms and conditions of using this
software as noted in Appendix A.
The following section will guide you how to use the CLFE(X)IPS High Power PoE Midspan GUI.
After connecting the Midspan to the host computer using a USB or Serial cable run the GUI executable file (PoE_ GUI.exe) on the PC. It will open the firmware window.
GUI System Requirements
Recommended Operating system: Windows XP, Vista and Windows7. It requires Microsoft .NET Framework installed on the
host computer.
Port Communication: Serial or USB port
Firmware Window
Warning: Upgrading firmware is not part of the normal operating procedure. It should only be performed at the
recommendation of the manufacturer by skilled personnel. Improper upgrading will affect equipment performance and may result in rendering the equipment inoperative.
Host Port Selection:
The GUI will display all the available COMM ports present on the PC on the bottom row of the window. Select an available serial or USB port to connect to the Midspan. Then click on “Connect” button. This will connect your PC to the Midspan and the “Status” on the bottom of the window will display “Connected”. A USB cable is provided.
The GUI requires Microsoft .NET Framework installed If you are running the GUI for the first time on a host computer with Windows XP you may need to visit Microsoft website to download and install Microsoft .NET Framework.
Computers with Windows Vista and Windows 7 have the USB driver of the Midspan. If you are using Windows XP and can not install USB driver automatically take the following steps:
Go to Property->Hardware->Device Manager->USB and update the driver.

User Input
Firmware File: Enter the firmware filename needs to be used. This is the firmware that will run inside the Midspan
for its operation. A new unit has all the necessary programing and does not need this step.
Status
Command Progress: This bar will display the progress of commands.
Commands
Browse: The File browse dialog box will be opened to select the firmware file to be used.
Download: The image file selected using “Load” command will be used for download. Needs to be used when
the PoE system is in BOOTROM mode.
Save Image: Downloaded image will be saved in the EEPROM for auto-booting (Booting with out intervention of
the host).
Save Config: Saves the current running configuration in the EEPROM.

User Inputs
Power Management Mode (PM) Power Management can be used in the following modes:
» None: Power Management will not be performed by the firmware. User needs to power up the ports manually.
» Static /w Priority: Power is budgeted statically based on selected violation type.
› If violation type is “Class Based”, then maximum permissible power for that class is budgeted.
› If violation type is “User Defined”, then the configured user-defined limit is budgeted.
› If violation type is “None”, then budgeted power is based on port mode.
› For Normal Mode the power budgeted is 16.2W
› For High Power Mode the power budgeted is based on ILIM/ICUT selected value.
· For ILIM/ICUT – 504/465 mA, the power budgeted is 22.5W
· For ILIM/ICUT – 563/545 mA, the power budgeted is 26.5W
· For ILIM/ICUT – 850/625 mA, the power budgeted is 31.6W
· For ILIM/ICUT – 850/725 mA, the power budgeted is 37.0W
» Static /wo Priority: Same as above except that port priority of the port is ignored.
» Static /wo Priority: Power is budgeted statically based on selected violation type.
› If violation type is “Class Based”, then maximum permissible power for that class is budgeted.
› If violation type is “User Defined”, then the configured user-defined limit is budgeted.
› If violation type is “None”, then budgeted power is based on port mode.
› For Normal Mode the power budgeted is 16.2W
