3.4 Connecting Ethernet Cables
The ports on the Midspan's front panel are configured as "Pass Through"
ports for four (1,2, 3 & 6) conductors of the RJ-45 connectors. Use
Category 5 cabling when making the connections.
1. Connect cables from the Ethernet Switch to the Data In ports
(lower row on the front panel).
2. Connect the cables from the IEEE 802.3af ready terminals
(PDs) to the corresponding Data & Power Out ports (upper row
on the front panel).

Connecting Power Cables
When using AC source to power the Midspan, plug in the provided power
cord at the rear AC connector.
3.6
Powering up
The Power over Ethernet Midspan has no on/off switch. To apply power
to the Midspan or remove power from the Midspan, insert or remove the
power cable from the receptacle (AC) on the rear panel of the unit.
With power applied, the Midspan powers-up and the internal fan
operates; then, the device runs its Power-On Self-Test (POST), which
takes less than 10 seconds. During the POST, all ports are disabled and
the indicators illuminate in the following sequence:
1. Port indicators and Main indicators illuminate green.
2. Main indicator remains lit green; port indicators are off.
Ports are now ready (enabled) for normal operation.
