Safety Information (cont.)
WARNING
Read the installation instructions before connecting
the Power over LAN Hub to its power source.
WARNING
Follow basic electricity safety measures whenever
connecting the Power over LAN Hub to its power source.
WARNING
This product relies on the building installation for
short-circuit (over current) protection. Ensure that a
fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 3A.
U.S. (240 VAC, 1.5A international) is used on the
phase conductor.
WARNING
A voltage mismatch can cause equipment damage
and may pose a fire hazard. If the voltage indicated
on the label is different from the power outlet voltage,
do not connect the Power over LAN Hub to this
power outlet.
WARNING
The Power over LAN Hub "Data In" and "Data &
Power Out" ports are shielded RJ-45 data sockets.
They cannot be used as Plain Old Telephone
Service (POTS) telephone sockets. Only RJ-45 data
connectors may be connected to these sockets.

If these resources don’t provide the help you need,
please contact your local authorized PowerDsine
reseller for additional technical support.

Functions and Features
The device is design to meet the IEEE802.3af standard
The Power over LAN Hub adds 48VDC to the unused (non-data)
wires in standard Category 5 Ethernet cable. As a result, the
Power over LAN Hub delivers both data and power to the
terminal.
EMC Compliance: Category 5 foiled twisted-pair cables must be
used to ensure compliance with requirements of FCC Part 15,
subpart B, Class B. The use of unshielded cables (Category 5 for
10BASE-T ports or for 100BASE-Tx ports) complies with Class A
requirements.
Installation
The Power over LAN Hub may be free standing or wall mounted
using the back wall holders.
NOTE:
Before you mount the Power over LAN Hub to a fixed location:
• Ensure not to cover the Power over LAN Hub or block the
airflow to the Power over LAN Hub with any other objects.
Keep the Power over LAN Hub away from excessive heat and
humidity, and free from vibration and dust.
• Ensure that the cable length from the Ethernet network source
to the terminal does not exceed 100 meters (333 Feet). The
Power over LAN Hub is not a repeater and does not amplify
the Ethernet data signal
Installing the Unit
• Connect the Power over LAN Hub to an AC outlet (100240 VAC), using a standard power cord.
• Connect the unit Data In jack (input) to the Ethernet network
and the Data & Power Out jack (output) to the terminal.

Troubleshooting
• Ensure AC power is applied to the Power over LAN Hub,
using an operational AC cable with an appropriate
ground connection.
• Ensure the use of a standard 4 pair (8 wires) UTP or
FTP CAT5 cable.
• Ensure a “crossover” type Ethernet cable is not used.
• Ensure input Ethernet cable is connected to the Data In
port.
• Ensure output Ethernet cable is connected to the
Data & Power Out port.
• Verify that the Ethernet cable length is less than
100 meters from the Ethernet source to the load.
• Verify that power ready Ethernet compatible device is
connected.
• Verify that you are not using any cross over cable
between the Power over LAN Hub output port and the
load device.
• Verify that there is no short over any of the twisted pair
cables or over the RJ45 connectors.

Safety Information
Important Safety Information
• Installation and removal of the Power over LAN Hub
must be carried out by qualified personnel only.
• AC Power Cord Set:
q The power cord must have regulatory agency
approval for the specific country in which it is used
(i.e., UL, CSA, VDE, etc.).
q The power cord must be a three-conductor type
(two current carrying conductors; one ground
conductor) terminated on one end by an IEC 60320
appliance coupler (for connection to the Power over
LAN Hub), and on the other end by a plug
containing a ground (earthing) contact.
q The power cord must be rated for a minimum of
250Vac RMS operation, with a minimum rated
current capacity of 5 amps (or a minimum wire
gauge of 18 AWG (0.75mm2)). Note: Power over
LAN Hub units installed in Australia require power
cords with a minimum wire gauge of 16 AWG (1.0
mm2).
• The AC wall socket-outlet must be near the Power over
LAN Hub and easily accessible. You can remove AC
power from the Power over LAN Hub by disconnecting
the AC power cord from either the wall socket-outlet or
the Power over LAN Hub appliance coupler.
• The Power over LAN Hub data and data / power
interfaces are qualified as SELV (Safety Extra-Low
Voltage) circuits according to IEC 60950. These
interfaces can only be connected to SELV interfaces on
other equipment.
