Information about power
connection
There are 2 methods for powering the door station.
Choose one or the other; do not use both methods.
– Using Power over Ethernet (PoE)
In this case, the door station and a
PoE-compatible device (such as a PoE switch
or power supply) are connected by a single LAN
cable. The LAN cable carries both power and
data.
– Using the VL-PS240 power supply unit (sold
separately)
In this case, the power supply unit is hardwired
to the power source, and connects to the door
station using the included DC plug.
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
connection
To power the door station using PoE, use a LAN
cable to connect the door station and a
PoE-compatible device (such as a PoE switch or
power supply). See "Wire and cable
specifications", Page 17 for LAN cable
specifications.
