Page 7: Standalone Workgroup
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch 1.3.1 Standalone Workgroup In this application, the Switch is an ideal solution for small networks where rapid growth can be expected in the near future. The Switch can be used standalone for a group of heavy traffic users. You can connect computers directly to the Switch’s port or connect other switches to the Switch. - Page 8 Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch Ports 1 to 4 on the GS1100-8HP are IEEE 802.3at High Power over Ethernet (PoE) compliant and can supply power of up to 30W per Ethernet port and up to the total PoE power budget per Switch. A powered device (PD) is a device such as an access point or a switch, that supports PoE (Power over Ethernet) so that it can receive power from another device through a 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet port.
