Introduction Overview Since the original introduction of PoE, the IEEE has initiated a new project called 802.3at which is commonly referred to as PoE+. This project enhances PoE in a couple of very important ways. First, it provides up to 30W of power to a Powered Device (PD), 25.5 watts to the device and 4.5 for line loss, and allows this power to also run on cabling designed for 1000BASE-T.
Page 13
Introduction Overview Power over Ethernet connections to embedded computers will allow a less expensive installation (no AC cabling, lower labor costs), facilitate updating the installation and repositioning of end devices (wireless access points, security cameras, and so forth) without electricians, while maintaining full control over every node through the internet.
The Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) applies power to either set of wires. HP ProCurve Networking switches, as a PSE, supply PoE power over the “data pair” or, pins 1 and 2, and the pair on pins 3 and 6.
IP Gateways, and audio and video remote monitoring. The HP ProCurve PoE switch devices are multi-port switches that can be used to build high-performance switched workgroup networks with PoE. These switches are store-and-forward devices that offer low latency for high-speed networking.

Introduction PoE Capabilities of the Products HP ProCurve 2520G Switches The 2520G (J9298A), has 8 Integrated PoE auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-TX RJ-45 ports with two dual-personality Gigabit Uplink ports. The 2520G (J9299A), has 24 Integrated PoE auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-TX RJ-45 ports including four dual-personality Gigabit Uplink ports.
Introduction PoE Capabilities of the Products HP ProCurve 2610 Switches These switches support some pre-standard PoE devices. For a list of these devices, see the FAQs for your switch model. This feature must be enabled; it is not a default feature.
Introduction PoE Capabilities of the Products Power Redundancy for the 2600 and 2610 Switches The internal power supply in these switches provides both the 12V (RPS) and 50V (EPS) circuits. If either the 12V or 50V fails, the power supply shuts down which will bring down all switch and PoE connections.
Introduction PoE Capabilities of the Products HP ProCurve 2910al Switches The HP ProCurve Switch 2910al-48G-PoE+ (J9148A), has 44 Integrated PoE+ auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports with four dual-personality Gigabit Uplink ports.

Introduction PoE Capabilities of the Products The HP ProCurve Switch 8212zl is a chassis that can hold up to twelve 24-port modules to provide up to 288 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports for PoE/PoE+ power. N o t e The 5412zl chassis and the 8212zl chassis share a completely common PoE/PoE+ implementation.
50 volts of the J8712A or J8713A power supplies. Only the J9306A will provide PoE/PoE+ power. For example, if an HP ProCurve 5406zl switch on a 110 volt circuit has a J8712A installed, and then a J9306A is inserted, the switch only provides 300 watts of power, not 573 watts (273 watts + 300 watts).
12V (system power) and 50V (PoE power) should one power supply fail. See the HP ProCurve Switch zl Internal Power Supplies Installation Guide, for more information and specifications on these power supplies.
Introduction PoE Capabilities of the Products Configuring PoE Redundancy When considering redundant power, also consider the power source for the power supplies. Each power supply should be connected to a separate power source circuit in order to supply complete redundancy. Should one circuit fail, it would then be possible for the other circuit to continue supplying power to the second power supply in the switch, keeping the switch running.

Infrastructure Requirements Air conditioning Power supplies create a great amount of heat. Ensure you have enough cool air to maintain an ambient temperature between 0C to 50C (32F to 131F) around the switch devices inside the rack or equipment closet. If you are installing any of the X2 transceivers the operating ambient temperature should not exceed 40C (104F).
Infrastructure Requirements Physical Space Many switches come with dual power ratings (110 or 220 volt operation). Therefore planning for power requirements is critical. If a wiring closet currently only supplies 110 volts it must be determined whether or not to operate the switch at 110 volts or 220 volts.
