PCIe-PoE454at DIP Switches PCIe-PoE454at features individual per-port power on/off control via Neousys’ API so you may manually cut off or resume the power delivery to the connected PoE device. This feature is designed for failure recovery in the field to reset connected devices. In case you have installed multiple cards, there is a set of DIP switches (indicated in blue) for users to configure board ID.
PCIe-PoE454at 2.3.2 Board ID Settings The following illustrations describe DIP switch board ID settings. When installing multiple cards, please remember to set a different ID for each card. Board ID DIP Switch Position (P1 ~ P3)
PCIe-PoE454at PCIe-PoE454at Card Installation Once you have set up the DIP switch ID of your PCIe-PoE454at for multi-card installation, then you are ready to install the PCIe-PoE454at into the system. Please refer to the following installation procedures. Before disassembling the system enclosure and installing the card, please read the following instructions: ...
Power off and unplug the power cable from the system you wish to install to. Open the chassis (side panel) of the computer you wish to install the PCIe-PoE454at into. Locate the x4 PCIe slot or a spare and compatible x16/ x8 PCIe slot.

PCIe-PoE454at Secure the PCIe-PoE454at to the chassis with a screw. Connect the 6-pin PCIe power cable if need be. Reinstall the system’s chassis (panel) to complete the hardware installation process.
PCIe-PoE454at Software Installation Some operating systems may have built-in drivers included and automatically complete the installation upon entering the system. However, it is still recommended to run and install drivers provided by Neousys to take advantage of all the functions offered. To install the software...
PCIe-PoE454at Driver and Network Settings PCIe-PoE454at offers Gigabit Ethernet connectivity via AQC111C controller. When connecting to a high-speed PoE device, such as a GigE camera, you can configure driver settings for optimum transmission throughput and connection stability. Jumbo Frame Jumbo frames are Ethernet frames with more than 1500 bytes of payload. By increasing the payload size, large data packets can be transferred with less interruption, which reduces CPU utilization and increases overall data throughput.

PCIe-PoE454at Click on the Configure button, the following dialog appears and click on the Advanced tab.
Page 23
PCIe-PoE454at Highlight Jumbo Packet and select a jumbo frame size from the Value drop-down list (16348 Byte is recommended for connecting devices with high data rate).
PCIe-PoE454at Receive Buffers Receive Buffers is another option which can affect data throughput. It determines the size of memory buffer allocated for receiving data. Increasing the size of Receive Buffers can improve the performance of receiving data. The default setting of Receive Buffers is 256 bytes. When connecting to an Ethernet device that generates large amount of data, you can set this option to a larger value (maximum 4096 bytes) for better performance.

PCIe-PoE454at Scroll down the Property list and highlight Receive Buffers and enter a setting into the Value column (4096 Bytes is recommended for connecting devices with high data rate).
PCIe-PoE454at Transmit Buffers Like Receive Buffers, Transmit Buffers can affect the transmission performance. The default setting of Transmit Buffers is 512 bytes. If you encounter a performance issue while transmitting data, you can adjust the size of Transmit Buffers to a larger value (maximum 8184 bytes) for better performance.
