Page 16: Mode One
NETGEAR Managed Switch Note: Modes one through six require all four RPS ports to have the same Type/CS setting. Mode One This mode supports Type A RPS devices such as GSM732xxSv1. One APS1000W PSU inside an RPS4000 v2 power bank supports one RPS port delivering power to an individual switch when a connected device is detected. -
Page 17: Mode Three
NETGEAR Managed Switch RPS4000 v2-provided PoE power replaces the switch's internal power supply when the RPS4000 v2 is connected to the switch, and the power supply inside the switch becomes a standby power supply. In this mode, APS1000W can be installed in any slot, but only the slot it is installed in will be used. -
Page 18: Mode Four
Mode Four This mode supports Type B RPS devices such the M5300 series switches. RPS ports deliver power to devices when the RPS4000v2 detects a connected Type B device over the I2C bus. In this mode, the RPS port can output a maximum 1440W of PoE power to devices when 2 power modules are present and work well in the same group. -
Page 19: Mode Five
Mode Five This mode supports Type B RPS devices such the M5300 series switches. RPS ports deliver power to devices when the RPS4000v2 detects a connected Type B device over the I2C bus. In this mode, one APS1000W will provide power to 2 RPS ports in the same group. -
