You can power a DMP 4310G through its Ethernet cable. Other DMP models do not support this feature.
A DMP 4310G has two USB interfaces on its chassis. When you use PoE to power a DMP 4310G, we recommend that
you use no more than one of these USB interfaces at a time. IEEE 802.3af PoE is limited in its capacity and might not be
sufficient to power your DMP and two USB peripherals simultaneously.
When both PoE power and AC power are detected, AC power overrides PoE and disconnects the PoE circuit.
