The FM-32Pi module has 32 powered 10/100 Mpbs autonegotiating Ethernet ports using standard RJ-45
connectors. The FM-32Pi module supports autonegotitation of 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX.
The FM-32Pi module supports power over Ethernet powered ports according to the IEEE 802.3AF
specification; this module is suitable for use in intra-building applications.
NOTE
The FM-32Pi module ports must be connected within the same building.
The FM-32Pi module can supply up to 32W of power from the backplane. For additional power, an
external 48-volt power supply, the EPS-LD (45019), can be attached to the FM-32Pi module.
WARNING!
The EPS-LD is the only external power supply that should be used with the FM-32Pi module.
A connector on the front panel of the FM-32Pi module, shown in Figure 112, allows more ports to be
powered by connecting the module to the EPS-LD. This connection requires a special external power
supply cable. For more information, see "Connecting the EPS-LD to the FM-32Pi Module" on page 172.

The total power available from the ports on the FM-32Pi module is 32 watts. This will provide two ports
at full power (15.4W, class 3), 4 ports at medium power (7.0W, class 2), or eight ports at low power
(4.0W, class 1). There is no limitation to the number of modules installed, but ExtremeWare enforces a
limit on the number of ports powered up per module and per system.
