Use the PoE Port Settings dialog box to configure PoE settings on individual ports.
To access PoE Port Settings screen, go to .
Screen Objective | This screen allows the user to configure the port settings for PoE. |

Admin Status | Enable/Disable the PoE capabilities of the port. If the port is enabled, it will auto detect end devices for PoE capability. If the port is disabled PoE, capability will be disabled. |
Max Pairs | Use this drop down to specify if PoE power is to provided on up to
two or four wire pairs.
IEEE 802.3af (up to 15.4 Watts) and IEEE 802.3at (up to 30 Watts) use two pairs of wires to supply PoE power. IEEE 802.3bt can uses four pairs to supply up to 60W of PoEpower; however, to ensure power consumption limits, the adjacent port (odd/even combination) needs to be disabled before this can be set. |
Power Priority | Priority related configuration. The PoE port priority may be set as
critical, high, or low. The priority and port numbering are used to determine which ports are shut down in the event that there is not sufficient power for all PoE ports. The ports are grouped by their priority levels where critical is the last group to get shut down and low would be the first to lose power. Within those groupings preference is determined by port numbering. Example: Port 24 - critical would be shut down after Port 1 - low, but before Port 23 - critical. |
