INTRODUCTION
The DWL-P1012 Power over Ethernet Midspan injects power into data-carrying
Ethernet cabling. The Midspan will add power to 12 ports respectively in a
10/100BASE-TX Ethernet network, over TIA/EIA-568 Category 5/5e/6 cabling.
48V DC operating power (up to 15.4W), for data terminal units, is fed over
unused pairs of the cabling (7/8 and 4/5).
The Power over Ethernet Midspan powers PoE capable devices known as
Powered Devices (PD). Devices that are not equipped to receive power over
Ethernet require an external power splitter adapter (DWL-P50) to be powered.

Features
The DWL-P1012 features include:
IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet compliant.
Provides LED indicator for System and PoE status.
Eliminates the need for AC outlets, local UPS and AC/DC adapters
Web based Management for System and PoE power management.
Supports SNMP protocol version 1
MIB support for:
RFC1213 MIB II.
RFC3621 Power over Ethernet MIB
Private MIB.
Independent overload and short-circuit protection per channel
Standard 19-inch rack mountable.
Ports
Data ports (upper row of ports): Twelve (12) 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet data
input ports. These ports are designed to carry Ethernet data only (Tx/Rx) over
the standard 2-wire pairs (pins 1/2 and 3/6).
PoE ports (lower row of ports): Twelve (12) 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet with
48V DC power output ports. These ports are designed to carry Ethernet data
over the standard 2-wire pairs (pins 1/2 and 3/6) and DC power over the spare
pairs (pins 4/5 and 7/8).
Management port: One (1) 10/100Mbps Ethernet/Fast Ethernet port for out of
band management.

UNPACKING AND INSTALLATION
This chapter provides unpacking and installation information for the DWL-P1012.
Unpacking
Open the shipping carton of the DWL-P1012 and carefully unpack its contents.
The carton should contain the following items:
♦ One DWL-P1012 Web Smart PoE Midspan
♦ Four rubber feet with adhesive backing
♦ One AC power cord
♦ Mounting kit (two brackets and screws)
♦ CD-ROM (This User’s Guide and Utility)
If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for
replacement.

Setup
Setup of the DWL-P1012 can be completed easily by following these steps:
Install the Midspan on a sturdy, level surface that can support at least
6.6 lb. (3 kg) of weight. Do not place heavy objects on the device.
The power outlet should be within 1.82 meters (6 feet) of the device.
Visually inspect the power cord and see that it is fully secured to the
AC power port.
Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation from and adequate
ventilation around the Midspan. Leave at least 4 inches (10 cm) of
space at the front and rear of the Midspan for ventilation
Install the Midspan in a fairly cool and dry place for the acceptable
temperature and humidity operating ranges.
Install the Midspan in a site free from strong electromagnetic field
generators (such as motors), vibration, dust, and direct exposure to
sunlight.
When installing the Midspan on a level surface, attach the rubber feet to the
bottom of the device. The rubber feet cushion the Midspan, protect the casing
from scratches and prevent it from scratching other surfaces.
Installing the DWL-P1012 on a Desktop
When installing the DWL-P1012 on a desktop or shelf, the rubber feet included
with the DWL-P1012 should first be attached. Attach these cushioning feet on
the bottom at each corner of the device. Allow enough ventilation space
between the DWL-P1012 and any other objects in the vicinity.

Installing the DWL-P1012 on a Rack
The DWL-P1012 can be mounted in a standard 19" rack. Use the following
diagrams to guide you.
Fasten the mounting brackets to the DWL-P1012 using the screws provided.
With the brackets attached securely, you can mount the DWL-P1012 in a
standard rack as shown on the following page.
Mounting the DWL-P1012 in a Standard 19" Rack:

Connecting Network Cables
As shown below, the Midspan is connected in series to an Ethernet switch/hub.
The data outputs from the switch are connected to the Midspan. The Midspan
delivers power over spare twisted pairs (pins 7/8 and pins 4/5) of the Category 5
cabling, without degrading the quality of data communications. The
Management port may be connected directly or through a LAN to the
Management station.
6
Each data port is configured as shown below, as data route-through ports for all
data pins (pins 1, 2, 3 and 6). Be certain to use Category 5 or higher cabling to
ensure proper operation. This PoE Midspan is not compatible with Gigabit
Ethernet, any Gigabit Ethernet Capable device will only link at 100Mbps Full
Duplex when connected to the DWL-P1012. IEEE 802.3af compliant Power
Source Equipment will not energize the unused pairs unless an 802.3af
compliant Powered Device signals the Power Source Equipment that it is ready
to receive power.
Power on
The DWL-P1012 must be used with AC power sources 100 - 240 VAC, 50 - 60
Hz. The DWL-P1012’s power supply will adjust to the local power source
automatically.
Plug one end of the PC power cord into the AC power connector of the DWLP1012 and the other end into the local AC power outlet.

IDENTIFYING EXTERNAL COMPONENTS
This chapter describes the front panel, rear panel and LED indicators of the
DWL-P1012.
Front Panel Components
The front panel of the DWL-P1012 consists of twelve (12) 10/100Mbps Fast
Ethernet data ports (data only), twelve (12) 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet PoE
ports (data + DC power), one (1) 10/100Mbps Ethernet/Fast Ethernet port for
out of band management and a Reset button.
Data port (upper row of ports): Twelve 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet data ports.
PoE port (lower row of ports): Twelve 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet data with
DC power output ports.
Management port: One 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet out of band management
port.
LED Indicators: Comprehensive LED indicators that display the conditions of
the DWL-P1012 and status of the network. A description of these LED indicators
follows.
Reset button: The Reset button is to reset all device settings back to factory
defaults.
Note: The Midspan supports PoE port priority management. When the available
system power is less than required by the PD, the Midspan will enforce PoE port
priority management where the lower port number will have higher priority than
the higher port number, Port 1 > Port 2 > … > Port 12. This means that a device
connected to Port 1 will receive Power before a device connected to Port 2. Be
sure to create a configuration backup once the device configuration is complete.
In the event of an accidental reset the backup can be loaded through the WebUI or Web Smart Utility to save time.
8
Rear Panel
The rear panel of the DWL-P1012 contains an AC power connector.
The AC power connector is a standard three-pronged connector that supports
the AC power cord. Plug in the female connector of the provided power cord into
this socket, and the male side of the cord into a power outlet. The DWL-P1012
automatically adjusts its power setting to any supply voltage in the range from
100 ~ 240 VAC at 50 ~ 60 Hz.
