Information for Canadian Users

The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment
meets certain telecommunications network protective operation and safety requirements. The Industry
Canada label does not guarantee that the equipment will operate to a user's satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the
facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an
acceptable method of connection. In some cases, the company's inside wiring associated with a single
line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly. The customer
should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in
some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility
designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment
malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the

For their own protection, users should ensure that the electrical ground connections of the power utility,
telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This
precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.

Caution

Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate
electrical inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate.

PoE-10 Single-port Power over Ethernet Injector

About Your PoE-10

The PoE-10 Single-port Power over Ethernet injector is a one-port power injector,
designed for use with 10/100 BaseT Ethernet networks. The PoE-10 injects DC
power through the unused twisted-wires (pairs 4/5 and 7/8) of a standard 8-pin
CAT 5 cable. This allows increased flexibility in the locating of a power over
Ethernet (PoE) enabled device by eliminating the need for a nearby power source.

Packaging List

The following items come with your PoE-10.

 This User’s Guide
 One Power Adaptor
 One straight-through Ethernet cable

Key Features

 One RJ-45, 10/100 Mbps PoE-enabled port.
 Ensures a constant power supply to a PoE-enabled device.
 Automatically detects if the connected device is PoE-enabled to avoid

sending power to a non-PoE device.

Front Panel LEDs

The LEDs on the front panel of the PoE-10 are shown next.

power to an Ethernet device.
No Ethernet connection is present.
The connected Ethernet device is not

PoE-enabled or is malfunctioning.

Rear Panel and Connections

The rear panel and connections of the PoE-10 are shown next. All connections

PoE-10 Single-port Power over Ethernet Injector

are located on the rear panel.

LAN 10/100M Ports

The PoE-10 has two LAN ports. The PWR&DATA port delivers power to your
PoE-enabled device. Use a straight-through Ethernet cable to connect the
PWR&DATA port to your PoE-enabled device.

The DATA port does not deliver power. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the
PoE-10’s DATA port to the LAN.

The maximum Ethernet cable length is 100m.

POWER Socket

WARNING: Use only the included power adaptor. It is suitable for

desktop use. Use of another power adaptor may damage the

PoE-10.

Connect the female end of the power adaptor to the PoE-10’s POWER socket.
Connect the female end of the power cord to the power adaptor and the male end
to a power source (wall outlet or power strip).

Troubleshooting

Make sure you have securely attached the proper cables to the proper ports.
Refer to the Rear Panel and Connections section for this information. If your
PoE-10 still does not work properly, refer to the table shown next.

PROBLEM CORRECTIVE ACTION

No LEDs are on when
I connect the PoE-10.

The LNK LED is not
on.

The LNK LED is
flashing.

Power is not being
supplied to my
PoE-enabled device.

Check to see that the enclosed power adapter is properly
connected to the PoE-10 and an appropriate power source.
Make sure the power source is on and functioning properly.
If the problem persists, your power adaptor may have
malfunctioned. Contact your local distributor.

Check to see that the Ethernet cables are connected properly
and that you are using the correct type of cable. Refer to the
Rear Panel and Connections section for this information.
If the problem persists, contact your local distributor.

Make sure that the connected Ethernet device is PoE-enabled
and is not malfunctioning.
If the problem persists, try connecting a different PoE-enabled
device to the PoE-10’s PWR&DATA port.
The PoE-10 can send Ethernet traffic to a device that is not
PoE-enabled, but not power.

Ensure that the Ethernet cable connecting the PoE-enabled
device to the PoE-10’s PWR&DATA port is securely attached.
Make sure the PoE-10 is connected to an appropriate power
source and that the power source is on and functioning
properly.
