The PSU input power consumption is monitored by measuring voltage and current.
The input power consumption is equal to the system's aggregated power
consumption. The power management concept allows all ports to be active and
activates additional ports, as long as the aggregated power of the system is lower
than the power level at which additional PDs cannot be connected .When this value is
exceeded, ports will be deactivated, according to user-defined priorities. The power
budget is managed according to the following user-definable parameters: maximum
available power, ports priority, maximum allowable power per port.
The Over Temperature Protection of the PoE Switch offers a safety and stable PoE
operating by limit the output power according to detected temperature to prevent
destructive breakdown due to un-expected overheating.
This section provides PoE (Power over Ethernet) Configuration and PoE output status
of PoE Switch, screen in Figure 4-69 appears.
