Cables
The type of cable required for each port depends on the device being
connected:
Direct connection to a SPOE compatible device
On the SPOE Line Card (
requires an 8-conductor Category 5 UTP Ethernet cable with an RJ-45 male
connector. A straight-through cable is required to preserve POE voltage
polarity.
The port should be connected to the intended device either directly or using a
SPOE adapter with no intervening hubs, routers, switches, or other network
equipment.
Alcatel SPOE adapters separate the serial and FE portions of the cable and
route them to their individual ports on the connected device. There are two
adapter models:
CA-SPOE-ADAPT-1 adapts the Ethernet cable for DB-9 serial and RJ-45
FE devices.
CA-SPOE-ADAPT-2 adapts the Ethernet cable for RJ-45 serial and
RJ-45 FE devices.
The Alcatel SPOE adapters are compatible with the following APs:

Direct connection to a POE compatible device.
On the SPOE Line Card (
requires a 4- or 8-conductor Category 5 UTP Ethernet cable with an RJ-45 male
connector. A straight-through cable is required to preserve POE voltage

For POE, the port should be connected directly to the intended device with no
intervening hubs, routers, switches, or other network equipment.
