Installation

5-Port PoE Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged Switch

GS305P

Step 1. Connect the equipment.

Connect Port 5 on the switch to your router. Connect Ports 1–4 on the switch to your power over Ethernet (PoE) or non-PoE devices.

PoE Max LED

The maximum PoE power that the GS305P switch can deliver to all attached powered devices (PDs) is 55.5 Watts total, with a maximum power to each port of 15.4 Watts. (For more information, see PoE Considerations.) The PoE Max LED indicates the status of the PoE power that the switch can deliver to all attached PDs.

PoE Considerations

The switch prioritizes the power that it supplies in ascending port order (from Port 1 to port 4), up to its total power budget (55.5 Watts). If the power requirements for the attached powered devices (PDs) exceed the total power budget of the switch, the PD on the highest numbered port is disabled to ensure that the PDs that are connected to the higher priority, lower numbered ports are supported ﬁrst.

Just because a PD is listed as an 802.3af PoE powered device does not necessarily mean that it requires the maximum power limit of the speciﬁcation. Many PDs require less power, allowing all four PoE ports to be active simultaneously.

The following table describes the PoE classes and switch allocations.

• Make sure that the Ethernet cables are plugged in correctly. For each powered device (PD) that is connected to the switch, the corresponding right port LED on the switch lights solid green. If the right port LED lights solid amber, a PoE fault occurred and PoE halted because of one of the conditions that are listed in the following table.

PoE Fault Condition Possible Solution

A PoE-related short circuit occurred on the port.

The PoE power demand of the PD exceeded the maximum level of 16.2W that the switch permits.

The PoE current on the port exceeded the classiﬁcation limit of the PD.

The PoE voltage of the port is outside the range that the switch permits.

The problem is most likely with the attached PD. Check the condition of the PD or restart the PD by disconnecting and reconnecting the PD.

Restart the switch to see if the condition resolves itself.

PoE Troubleshooting

Here are some tips for correcting PoE problems that might occur:

• Make sure that the PoE Max LED is o. If the PoE Max LED is solid amber, disconnect one or more PoE devices to prevent PoE oversubscription. Start by disconnecting the device from the highest numbered port.
