8.8 PoE Status

Note: The following screens are available for the ES-2024 PWR model only. Some
features are only available for the Fast Ethernet ports (1 to 24).
Your Switch supports IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE).
A powered device (PD) is a device such as an access point or a switch, that
supports PoE (Power over Ethernet) so that it can receive power from another
device through a 10/100Mbps Ethernet port.
In the figure below, the IP camera and IP phone get their power directly from the
Switch. Aside from minimizing the need for cables and wires, PoE removes the
hassle of trying to find a nearby electric outlet to power up devices.

You can also set priorities so that the Switch is able to reserve and allocate power
to certain PDs.
