Connecting A Twisted Pair Segment With Rj45 Connector - Enterasys Gold Distributed Forwarding Engine 4G4205-72 Hardware Installation Manual

The RJ45 fixed front panel connectors of the 4G4285‐49 and 4G4205‐72 also support
PoE‐compliant connections to PDs (powered devices) that require 48 Vdc through the
UTP cable to operate. When the 48 Vdc is available through the backplane of an N5
chassis or externally from an N‐POE Power System, you can verify if there is power at
each port as described later in this procedure.
Making the UTP Connections
Caution: To prevent damage to the equipment, do not connect the PoE supported ports
(1 through 48 or 72) to segments running between buildings. Keep connections to
equipment within the building.
Precaución: Para evitar que el equipo se dañe, no conecte los puertos PoE
(1 a 48 o 72) a segmentos que vayan de un edificio a otro. Mantenga las conexiones de
los equipos dentro del edificio.
To connect and verify UTP cable connections to RJ45 ports (1 through 48 or 72), refer to
Figure 3‐4 and proceed as follows:
1. Ensure that the device connected to the other end of the segment is powered ON.
2. Insert the RJ45 connector on the twisted pair segment into the appropriate RJ45 port
connector.
