Follow these steps to enable IEEE 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet support on the four front-
panel BSC-600/1200 Controller Managed ports:
1.
Connect the PoE power supply included in your BSC-600/1200 distribution to a
grounded, 85 to 246 VAC power source.
Connect the PoE power supply's three-pin connector to the mating connector located
2.
on the back of the BSC-600/1200's chassis as shown in Figure 2-9.
3.
Power up the BSC-600/1200 Controller by following the procedure given in
"Connecting the BSC to its Power Source" on page 2-13.
The BSC-600/1200 is now capable of supplying power to 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet-
capable devices, such as the BlueSecure 1500 Access Point, directly connected to its four
front-panel Managed ports.
LED Run Time Mode for BSC-600 and BSC-1200
The system status LEDs are arranged on the left side of the BSC-1200 front panel as
follows:
•
Power (blue), Activity (green), System(green)
•
Fault (amber), Media (green), Test(green)
The run time state of the status LEDs shall be as follows:
•
"Fault" LED shall be set to OFF.
•
"Activity" LED shall blink when system activity is sensed.
•
"Media" LED shall blink when onboard storage Flash activity is sensed.
•
"System" LED shall be set to ON to indicate that system status is good.
•
"Test" LED shall be set to OFF to indicate that the system is in run time mode.
The "Fault" LED shall also be used for a visual indication that one of the BSC-1200's two
front panel pushbuttons has been pushed and sensed by software. "Fault" shall be set to
blink when either the ON/OFF or RESTART button has been sensed, and shall continue to
blink until the system powers OFF or resets.
Basic POE LED Functionality for BSC-600 and BSC-1200
POE enabled:
•
OFF - port disabled from GUI
•
ON steady - port enabled from GUI
(blink is not used)
POE activity
•
OFF: No POE brick, or port disabled from GUI.
•
ON blinking: Port enabled, but AP not getting power from BSC (or unplugged).
•
ON steady: Port getting power from BSC.
