Configuring Power Over Ethernet - Hirschmann RS20 User Manual

Configuring the Ports
Displaying connection error messages
In the state on delivery, the device displays connection errors via the
signal contact and the LED display. The device allows you to suppress
this display, because you do not want to interpret a switched off device as
an interrupted connection, for example.
Select the
Basics:Port Configuration dialog.
In the "Propagate connection error" column, select the ports for
which you want to have link monitoring.

Configuring Power over ETHERNET

Devices with Power over ETHERNET (PoE) media modules or PoE ports
enable you to supply current to terminal devices such as IP phones via
the twisted-pair cable. PoE media modules and PoE ports support Power
over ETHERNET according to IEEE 802.3af.
On delivery, the Power over ETHERNET function is activated globally and
at all ports.
Nominal power for MS20/30, MACH 1000 and PowerMICE:
The device provides the nominal power for the sum of all PoE ports plus
a surplus. Because the PoE media module gets its PoE voltage
externally, the device does not know the possible nominal power.
The device therefore assumes a "nominal power" of 60 Watt per PoE
media module for now.
Nominal power for HS600x:
The device provides the nominal power for the sum of all PoE ports plus
a surplus. Because the PoE media module gets its PoE voltage
externally, the device does not know the possible nominal power.
The device therefore assumes a "nominal power" of 60 Watts per PoE
media module for now.
Nominal power for OCTOPUS 8M-PoE:
The device provides the nominal power for the sum of all PoE ports plus
a surplus. Because the device gets its PoE voltage externally, the device
does not know the possible nominal power.
The device therefore assumes a "nominal power" of 15 Watt per PoE port
for now.
