The Power Button is a non-latched switch with dual color LED indications. It
indicates power status: S0, S3 and S5. More detail LED indications are listed as
follows:

To power on ECS-4500, please press the power button and then the blue LED
is lightened. To power off the system, you can either command shutdown by OS
operation, or just simply press the power button.

If system error, you can just press the power button for 4-seconds to shut down
the machine directly. Please do note that a 4-second interval between each
2 power-on/ power-off operation is necessary in normal working status. (For
example, once turning off the system, you have to wait for 4 seconds to initiate
another power-on operation.)

2.2.9 PD (Powered Device) Ethernet Port

There are 2 PD (Powered Device) 8-pin RJ-45 jacks supporting 10/100/1000
Mbps Ethernet connections with PD in the front side of ECS-4500. LAN 1 is
powered by Intel® 219LM Ethernet engine and LAN 2 is powered by Intel® I210.
When both LAN 1 and LAN 2 work in normal status, basic iAMT function is
enabled. Each PD port can be supported at 25.5W for ECS-4500 used by other
external PoE+/PoE+ Hub.

Using suitable RJ-45 cable, you can connect ECS-4500 system to a computer
or to any other devices with Ethernet connection; for example, a hub or a
switch. Moreover, both of LAN 1 and LAN 2 support Wake on LAN and Pre-boot
