x530DP Series Installation Guide for Standalone Switches Table 6. x530DP-52GHXm Twisted Pair Ports 1 - 48 LED Functions (Continued) Ports State Description Solid Green PD On - The switch is delivering power to a powered device connected to the port. Solid Amber PD Error - The switch has shut down PoE on the port because of a fault condition.
Chapter 1: Overview Power Over Ethernet The x530DP-28GHXm switch features PoE++ on twisted pair ports 1 - 24. The x530DP-52GHXm switch features PoE+/PoE++ on twisted pair ports 1 - 48. With PoE, the switch supplies DC power to network devices over the same twisted pair cables that carry the network traffic.
x530DP Series Installation Guide for Standalone Switches Powered Device Powered devices are grouped into the seven classes listed in Table 7. The classes are based on the amount of power the devices require. The switch Classes supports all seven classes. Table 7.
Chapter 1: Overview Another factor that determines the power budget of the switch is the number of PoE power supplies in the device. The power budget of a PoE switch that has only one PoE power supply is equal to the budget of the power supply.
x530DP Series Installation Guide for Standalone Switches The switch can handle different power requirements on different ports. This enables you to connect different classes of PoE equipment to the ports on the switch. Port If the power requirements of the powered devices exceed the switch power budget, the switch denies power to some ports based on a system Prioritization called port prioritization.
Chapter 1: Overview Wiring The IEEE 802.3af standard defines two methods for delivering DC power over twisted pair cable by a switch to powered devices. These methods Implementation are known as Modes A and B, and identify the individual wires that carry the DC power within the cable from the switch to powered devices.
x530DP Series Installation Guide for Standalone Switches SFP+ Transceiver Ports The x530DP-28GHXm Switch has four ports (ports 25 - 28) and the x530DP-52GHXm Switch has four ports (ports 49 - 52) for 1Gbps SFP and 10Gbps SFP+ transceivers. SFP and SFP+ See “SFP+ Transceiver Ports”...

x530DP Series Installation Guide for Standalone Switches eco-friendly Button The eco-friendly button on the front panel of the switch is used to toggle the port LEDs on or off. You can turn off the LEDs to conserve electricity when you are not monitoring the device. You can also toggle the LEDs with the ECOFRIENDLY LED and NO ECOFRIENDLY LED commands in the Global Configuration mode of the command line interface of the AlliedWare Plus management software.
Chapter 1: Overview VCStack Feature You can use the switches as standalone units or join up to eight units with the VCStack feature. The switches of a VCStack act as a single virtual unit. They synchronize their actions so that switching operations (such as spanning tree protocols, virtual LANs, and static port trunks) span across all of the units and ports.
x530DP Series Installation Guide for Standalone Switches Switch ID LED The switch ID LED, shown in Figure 12, displays the ID number of the switch. A standalone switch has the ID number 0. Switches in a VCStack have the numbers 1 to 8. Chapter 7, “Powering On the Switch” on page 91 has the procedure for verifying and, if necessary, changing the ID number of the switch.
Chapter 1: Overview The states of the LED when the switch is not operating in the low power mode are shown in Figure 13. The switch is booting up. The switch has encountered a fault condition. The switch is operating as a standalone unit. The switch has an ID number of 1 to 8 as part of a VCStack.
x530DP Series Installation Guide for Standalone Switches USB Port The USB port on the management panel is used for the following functions: Store configuration files on flash drives. Restore configuration files to switches that have lost or corrupted settings.
Chapter 1: Overview Console Port The Console port is an RS232 serial management port. You use the port to access the AlliedWare Plus management software on the switch to configure the feature settings or monitor status or statistics. This type of management is commonly referred to as local management because you have to be at the physical location of the switch and use the management cable included with the unit.
