3. Power over Ethernet Overview

What is PoE?

The PoE is an abbreviation of Power over Ethernet; the PoE technology means
a system to pass electrical power safely, along with data on Ethernet UTP cable.
The IEEE standard for PoE technology requires Category 5 cable or higher for high
power PoE levels, but can operate with category 3 cable for low power levels.
Power is supplied in common mode over two or more of the differential pairs of
wires found in the Ethernet cables and comes from a power supply within a PoE­enabled networking device such as an Ethernet switch or can be injected into a
cable run with a mid-span power supply.

The original IEEE 802.3af-2003 PoE standard provides up to 15.4W of DC power
(minimum 44V DC and 350mA) to each device. Only 12.95W is assured to be
available at the powered device as some power is dissipated in the cable.

The updated IEEE 802.3at-2009 PoE standard also known as PoE+ or PoE plus,
provides up to 25.5W of power. The 2009 standard prohibits a powered device
from using all four pairs for power

The 802.3af / 802.3at dene two types of source equipment: Mid-Span and End-

Span.

Mid-Span

Mid-Span device is placed between legacy switch and the powered device. Mid­Span is tap the unused wire pairs 4/5 and 7/8 to carry power, the other four is for
data transmit.

End-Span

End-Span device is direct connecting with power device. End-Span could also tap
the wire 1/2 and 3/6.

PoE System Architecture

The specication of PoE typically requires two devices: the Powered Source
Equipment (PSE) and the Powered Device (PD). The PSE is either an End-Span

or a Mid-Span, while the PD is a PoE-enabled terminal, such as IP Phones, Wireless
LAN, etc. Power can be delivered over data pairs or spare pairs of standard CAT-5
cabling.

Powered Source Equipment (PSE)

Power sourcing equipment (PSE) is a device such as a switch that provides
(sources) power on the Ethernet cable. The maximum allowed continuous output

power per cable in IEEE 802.3af is 15.40W. A later specication, IEEE 802.3at,

offers 25.50W. When the device is a switch, it is commonly called an End-span

18

(although IEEE 802.3af refers to it as endpoint). Otherwise, if it's an intermediary

A powered device (PD) is a device powered by a PSE and thus consumes energy.
Examples include wireless access points, IP Phones, and IP cameras. Many powered
devices have an auxiliary power connector for an optional, external, power supply.
Depending on the PD design, some, none, or all power can be supplied from the
auxiliary port, with the auxiliary port sometimes acting as backup power in case of
PoE supplied power failure.

How Power is Transferred Through the Cable

A standard CAT5 Ethernet cable has four twisted pairs, but only two of these are

used for 10BASE-T and 100BASE-T. The specication allows two options for using

these cables for power, shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3:

The spare pairs are used. Figure 2 shows the pair on pins 4 and 5 connected
together and forming the positive supply, and the pair on pins 7 and 8 connected
and forming the negative supply. (In fact, a late change to the spec allows either
polarity to be used).

The data pairs are used. Since Ethernet pairs are transformer coupled at each

end, it is possible to apply DC power to the center tap of the isolation transformer
without upsetting the data transfer. In this mode of operation the pair on pins 3
and 6 and the pair on pins 1 and 2 can be of either polarity.

4. Troubleshooting

This chapter contains information to help you solve issues. If the Switch is not
functioning properly, make sure the Ethernet Switch was set up according to
instructions in this manual.

The Link LED is not lit

Solution:

Check the cable connection and remove duplex mode of the Switch.

Performance is bad

Solution:

Check the full duplex status of the Switch. If the Ethernet Switch is set to full
duplex and the partner is set to half duplex, then the performance will be poor.

1000Base-Tportlink LEDislit,but thetrafcisirregular

Solution:

Check that the attached device is not set to dedicate full duplex. Some devices
use a physical or software switch to change duplex modes. Auto-negotiation may
not recognize this type of full-duplex setting.

Why the Switch doesn’t connect to the network

Solution:

Check the LNK/ACT LED on the switch Try another port on the Switch Make sure
the cable is installed properly Make sure the cable is the right type Turn off the
power. After a while, turn on power again.

Why I connect my PoE device to GSD-808HP / GSD-808HP2 and it
cannot power on?

Solution:

1. Please check the cable type of the connection from GSD-808HP / GSD-808HP2
to the other end. The cable should be an 8-wire UTP, Category 5 or above,
EIA568 cable within 100 meters. A cable with only 4-wire, short loop or over
100 meters, all will affect the power supply.

2. Please check and assure the device that fully complied with IEEE 802.3at /

802.3af standard.

What is the power output of each PoE port?

Solution:

1. Each PoE port supports 52V DC, 535mA, max 30 Watts power output.
Detect and inject by the standard of IEEE 802.3at.

2. Each PoE port supports 52V DC, 275mA, max 15.4 Watts power output.
Detect and inject by the standard of IEEE 802.3af.

A.3 10/100Mbps, 10/100Base-TX

When connecting your Switch to another Fast Ethernet switch, a bridge or a hub, a
straight or crossover cable is necessary. Each port of the Switch supports auto-MDI/
MDI-X detection. That means you can directly connect the Switch to any Ethernet
devices without making a crossover cable. The following table and diagram show
the standard RJ-45 receptacle/ connector and their pin assignments:
