Functional Components - Alcatel-Lucent OmniPCX Enterprise Quick Start Manual

1
The Alcatel-Lucent 3 Port PoE (Power over Ethernet) Gigabit Adapter (referred to as the
Alcatel-Lucent PoE GA from now on) transmits electrical power and data to the Alcatel-Lucent
8 Series Phones over standard twisted-pair cables in an Ethernet network.
It is an Ethernet switch that allows gigabit network access for a PC that is associated with a
series 8 phone without modifying the existing Ethernet infrastructure. The aim is to provide a
separate 1 GB connection for the PC. This feature is not possible if the PC is connected
through the IP phone.
The Alcatel-Lucent PoE GA can draw power over the Ethernet (PoE), or locally using an
adaptor.
The Alcatel-Lucent PoE GA provides:
- one 10/100/1000BASE-T upstream LAN Port,
- one 10/100BASE-T downstream device port for phone,
- one 10/100/1000BASE-T downstream device port for PC,
- power for the phone that is connected to the phone port.
1.1 Restriction
The Alcatel-Lucent PoE GA is guaranteed to work with Alcatel-Lucent Series 8 Phones only.

Functional components

1.2.1 LAN port
The 1 GB LAN port can support both types of Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE):
- for power delivery on either signal pair (pin 1, 2, 3, 6), or
- unused pairs (pin 4, 5, 7, and 8).
This port is capable of 10/100 Mbps connections with auto-negotiation.
1.2.2 Phone port
The phone port is a PoE PSE compliant port that supports class 0, class 1 or class 2 type
Powered Devices up to 6.49W. The PoE function of a phone will shut down if the phone
consumes actual power of more than 7W or 180mA.
This port is capable of 10/100 Mbps connections with auto-negotiation.
1.2.3 PC port
The 1 GB PC port is capable of linking at 10/100 Mbps with auto-negotiation.
1.2.4 Console port RS232C
This serial port (DB-9 connector) is configured as a data communication equipment connector.
