Powering devices
The Avaya G350 MM314 PoE media module has its own power supply. Therefore, a full 210 W of power
is available for PDs. Each port can supply up to 15.4 W by default. Since 210 W may not be enough for
driving powered devices on all the ports simultaneously, Avaya has implemented a priority mechanism.
The priority mechanism determines the order in which ports are powered after the switch is booted, and
powered down if the power resources of the switch are exhausted.
There are three user-configurable priority levels:
•
Low
•
High
•
Critical
The default value for all ports is Low.
Power is automatically restored to PDs according to their priority when the power budget increases. If the
power budget is exceeded, power is not provided to a new PD when you attach it, even if you define its
priority as High or Critical.

PoE configuration examples
This section provides PoE configuration examples.
The following example enables PoE on a port:
G350-003(super)# set port powerinline 6/12 enable
Load detection process on port 6/12 is enabled.
The following example disables PoE on a port:
G350-003(super)# set port powerinline 6/12 disable
Load detection process on port 6/12 is disabled.
