Powering the IE-MiniMc LFPT and Telco/LFPT

The IE-MiniMc LFPT and Telco/LFPT includes multiple powering options:
•
A country-specific, high-reliability AC power adapter (included)
•
The IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet standard; draws power from power
sourcing equipment
•
The 4-terminal DC power block
•
IE-PowerTray/18 for Rack Mounting

About Power Over Ethernet (PoE) and IE-MiniMc LFPT and Telco/LFPT

Power Over Ethernet technology allows the IE-MiniMc LFPT to be a Powered Device
(PD) and draw power when connected to Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE). Power
Sourcing Equipment distributes an electrical current across existing copper data
cabling.
When powering an IE-MiniMc Telco/LFPT and using -48 VDC power, the copper
port's Ethernet cable should not be connected to another unit capable of providing
PoE power, as malfunction or possible damage to the unit can occur.

LED Operation

Each IE-MiniMc LFPT and Telco/LFPT includes two LEDs, located on the RJ-45
connector.
LED functions are as follows:
FX LNK/ACT Glows green when a link is established on the fiber port; blinks green
when activity is detected on the fiber port.
TX LNK/ACT Glows amber when a link is established on the copper port; blinks
amber when activity is detected on the copper port.
