Description
Select the administrative mode of the port:
• Enable. The port's capacity to deliver power is enabled. This is the default
setting.
• Disable. The port's capacity to deliver power is disabled.
The port priority determines which ports can still deliver power after the total
power delivered by the switch exceeds the total power budget of 47W. (In such a
situation, the switch might not be able to deliver power to all connected devices.)
If the same priority applies to two ports, the lower-numbered port receives higher
priority.
Select one of the following priorities:
• Low. Low priority. This is the default setting.
• High. High priority.
• Critical. Critical priority.
Select the one of the following power modes:
• 802.3af. The port is powered in and limited to the IEEE 802.3af mode. A PD
that requires IEEE 802.3at does not receive power if the port functions in
IEEE 802.3af mode.
• Legacy. The port is powered using high-inrush current, which is used by
legacy PDs that require more than 15W to power up.
• Pre-802.3at. The port is initially powered in the IEEE 802.3af mode and,
before 75 msec pass, is switched to the high-power IEEE 802.3at mode.
Select this mode if the PD does not perform Layer 2 classification or if switch
performs 2-event Layer 1 classification.
• 802.3at. The port is powered in the IEEE 802.3at mode. This is the default
mode. In this mode, if the switch detects that the attached PD is not a Class
4 device, the PD does not receive power from the switch.
