1 About Your PoE-80 The PoE-80 Eight-port Power over Ethernet Hub is an eight-port power injector, designed for use with 10/100 BaseT Ethernet networks. The PoE-80 injects DC power through the unused twisted- wires (pairs 4/5 and 7/8) of a standard 8-pin CAT 5 cable. This allows increased flexibility in the locating of power over Ethernet (PoE) enabled devices by eliminating the need for a nearby power source.
Turn the PoE-80 right-side up after you attach the rubber feet. 2.2 Rack-mounted Installation The PoE-80 can be mounted on an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack or in a wiring closet with other equipment. Follow the steps below to mount your PoE-80 on a standard EIA rack using the included rack-mounting kit.
Step 2. After attaching both mounting brackets, position the PoE-80 in the rack by lining up the holes in the brackets with the appropriate holes on the rack. Secure the PoE-80 to the rack with the rack’s mounting screws. 2.3 Rear Panel Connections Connect the female end of the power cord to the power receptacle.
Orange 3 Software Utility Installation Install the software utility in order to configure the PoE-80 PD. You can easily view the PoE-80’s power parameters and control it through the software utility. The software utility provides an easy- to-use GUI interface. The software utility is compatible with Windows 2000 and XP. Please follow the below steps to install the software utility.

5 Managing the PoE-80 Connect to the PoE-80 through a computer connected to the console port. Then, connect a PoE- enabled device to a DATA OUT port on the PoE-80. Start the utility and the management interface displays as shown next.
Calibrate System When the PoE-80 is not functioning properly, select this check box and click Save to Device to reset the PoE-80 to the default settings. The device resets and the PWR FWD and PWR OFF LEDs flash.
Select this check box to have the system skip the power classification and Classification directly transmit power to the PoE-enabled device. When this check box is clear, the PoE-80 checks the current level in order to classify the IEEE 802.3af compliant PoE-enabled device. Bypass Detection Select this check box to bypass the PoE-enabled device detection function.

This displays the status (I sample, V sample or R detect) of the connection to a PoE-enabled device. I sample: The PoE-80 is sending current to detect whether or not the PoE- enabled device is still connected to the port.
Make sure you have securely attached the proper cables to the proper ports. Refer to the Rear Panel Connections and Front Panel Connections sections for this information. If your PoE-80 still does not work properly, refer to the table shown next.
EMI and Safety CORRECTIVE ACTION Ensure that the Ethernet cables connecting the PoE-enabled devices to the PoE-80’s DATA OUT ports are securely attached. Make sure the PoE-80 is connected to a power source. IEEE 802.3af 8 DATA IN RJ-45 Ethernet ports...
