    The P333T-PWR has two internal power supplies: one for the switching circuitry and one for the Inline power only. Connecting the P333T-PWR to the main electrical supply using the standard AC cable provides power to the switch and for the Inline power.
  • Page 40: Connecting An Additional/Backup Inline Power Supply Source

    However, in this case, no inline power can be supplied to the PDs (unless you connect the external DC power supply). The Avaya P333T-PWR performs a self test procedure (after every power-up or reset).

    The size of the two screws in the terminal block is M4. The pitch between each screw is 9.5mm. Connect the power cable to the external DC power supply. Warning: Make sure that you connect the cables between the P333T-PWR and the external power supply correctly: Positive (“+”) to positive (“+”) Negative (“-”) to negative (“-”)

    If you set the powerinline external power parameter to other values, you need to recalculate the number of switches supported accordingly. Note: Avaya P330 BUPS can support up to four P333T-PWR switches. If you are backing up more than 4 switches using the APC power shell, calculate the number of P330 BUPS units needed accordingly.

    The P333T-PWR periodically checks all ports, powered and non-powered to check their status and the power status of connected devices. The P333T-PWR will supply power to a port only after it has detected a suitable PD (powered device) is connected to the port. The check consists of the P333T-PWR looking for a signature from the device that indicates it needs to supply power.
  • Page 75: Specific Resistance Signature (Ieee 802.3Af)

    Specific Resistance Signature (IEEE 802.3af) The P333T-PWR applies a low voltage to the power feed pairs and measures the current. A resistance of 19kΩ to 26.5kΩ is considered valid according to the IEEE standard; if a valid signature is detected, power is supplied to the port. If not, Capacitor Signature verification is performed.

  • Page 97: Port Redundancy

    Chapter 13 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Port Redundancy Port redundancy involves the duplication of devices, services, or connections, so that, in the event of a failure, the redundant device, service, or connection can take over for the one that failed.

    Chapter 13 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features — “switchback-interval” — the minimum time (in seconds) that the primary port link has to be up (following failure) before the system switches back to the primary port. The “none” parameter, if configured, prevents switching back to the primary.

    This is typically based on IGMP snooping. The Avaya P330 supports multicast filtering. The P330 learns which switch ports need to receive which multicast packets and configures the necessary information into the switch's hardware tables.

    Chapter 13 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Stack Health The P330 software provides a Stack Helath feature for verifying the integrity of the P330 stack cascading module and cables. Overview The Stack Health feature will identify defective modules and cables that may be installed in the P330 stack.
  • Page 103: Port Classification

    Chapter 13 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Port Classification Overview With the P330, you can classify any port as regular or valuable. Setting a port to valuable means that, in case of Ethernet link failure of that port, a link fault trap can be sent even when the port is disabled and a fast aging operation on the CAM table will be performed.
  • Page 104: Stack Redundancy

    Chapter 13 Avaya P330 Layer 2 Features Stack Redundancy In the unlikely event that a P330 switch or Octaplane link should fail, stack integrity is maintained if the redundant cable is connected to the stack. The broken link is bypassed and data transmission continues uninterrupted. The single management IP address for the stack is also preserved for uninterrupted management and monitoring.
