The PoE (Power Over Ethernet) Switch family provide four 10M/100M/1000M TX ports with PoE PSE
function plus one 10M/100M/1000M TX up-link port with PoE PD function. It allows power souring
equipment (PSE) to be powered from PoE and deliver power to PoE powered device (PD), which are
compliant with IEEE802.3af and IEEE802.3at standard to receiver and deliver both Ethernet data and DC
power through the traditional UTP or STP cable. The PoE Switch can extend Ethernet data and DC power
up to 200 meters. This manual will help you install and maintain the PoE switch. Installation of the PoE
switch is very easy and you can start to use the product as soon as you are powered up.

*Power wiring
The PoE switch family includes 3 models, be used for 3 different ranges of input voltage:
full range voltage (12 to 57VDC) (P/N: TP-SW5G-NC)
24VDC typical (12 to 36VDC) (P/N: TP-SW5G24)
48VDC typical (40 to 57VDC) (P/N: TP-SW5G)
The PoE switch family allow powered by another PoE source on port 5 (UPLINK) as a PoE repeater or
extender. For TP-SW5G/TP-SW5G24 is 42.5~57VDC, for TP-SW5G-NC is 12~57VDC.
For PoE operation, make sure your power supply may offer at least 75W for 4x 802.3af PoE port, or 150W
for 4x 802.3at PoE port.
If powered via the rear terminal, please make sure the input current is not over 10A. If powered on port 5,
make sure the input current is not over 1Amp.

Ports 1~4 will deliver DC power over the Ethernet cable as detailed below:
* Data pair A on line 1 and 2
* Data pair B on line 3 and 6
* Data pair C plus V+ on line 4 and 5
* Data pair D plus V- on line 7 and 8
Port 5 may get DC power over the Ethernet cable, as detailed below:
* Data pair A plus V+ /V- on line 1 and 2
* Data pair B plus V-/V+ on line 3 and 6
* Data pair C plus V+/V- on line 4 and 5
* Data pair D plus V-/V+ on line 7 and 8
The terminal block on the rear panel should be wired as detailed below:
TYCON TP-SW5G(-NC) series
*For TP-SW5G24
Please note that the maximum power per port of 35W can only be achieved using 24VDC input operation. If
your input is 12VDC, then the total power per port should be de-rated to 17W per port.
Total output of TP-SW5G24 is 35W(802.3at) x2 or 17W (802.3af) x 4.
*For TP-SW5G
The input voltage must be in the range of 44 to 57VDC if running for 802.3af operation.
The input voltage must be in the range of 50 to 57VDC if running for 802.3at operation.
If the TP-SW5G is not powered with the above designated input voltage, it will only function as an Ethernet
switch without PoE output.

*Ethernet Port Wiring
The PoE switch family supports one RJ-45 uplink (port 5 with PoE PD) and four RJ-45 ports (port 1~4 with
PoE PSE) with automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover, auto-sense for speed and duplex for 10Base-T,
100Base-TX or 1000Base-T connection. Automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover allows you to connect to other
devices (switches, hubs, or workstations etc.), without regard to using straight-through or crossover cabling.
Port 1 to 4 provides Power over Ethernet function that delivers DC power through the data pairs C & D (pair
4,5 and pair7,8) to the PD. Port 5 provides Power Device function that receive power from 4 pairs or 2 pairs
Ethernet cable.
The following tables describe the wiring diagram of straight-through and crossover cabling. The crossover
cables simply cross-connect the transmit lines at each end to the receive lines at the opposite end.

Connect an Ethernet cable into any switch port and connect the other side to your
attached device. The Link/Act LED (green or yellow) will light up when the cable is correctly connected.
Refer to the LED Indicator section for descriptions of each LED indicator.
If a port LED is off, go back and check for connectivity problems between that port and the network device
connected.
The maximum cable length for 10/100/1000BaseT with Cat 5 twisted pair cables is typically 100m (328 ft.).

*PD Port Wiring
Port 1 to 4 provides PoE injection function with maximum 35W ability to power up the powered device
using the straight-through or cross-over Ethernet cable.
The PoE switch follows the IEEE802.3af Alternative B mode connector assignment. The following table
shows pin assignment of alternative A and B for the Power Source Equipment.
Be sure the twisted pair cable is bound with the standard RJ-45 pin, especially the pins 4, 5, 7 and 8. If the
RJ-45 is bound with the wrong pin number, the PoE switch will not recognize the PD and won’t deliver DC
power to the PD. The yellow PoE LED will light up when the cable is correctly connected. Refer to the LED Indicator section for descriptions of each LED indicator. If a port LED is off, go back and check for
connectivity problems between that port and the network device connected.

*Network Application
The PoE Switch can receive power from a PoE midspan and provide power to the PD which follows the
IEEE 802.3af/at standard in the network. The PoE Switch can be installed in a more appropriate position for
better performance to extend Ethernet to 200 meters. The following figure is an example of a network
application for the PoE Switch.
