Description

Designate how the PoE controller allocates power to the PoE interfaces.

Default

class

Options

  • class—The amount of power allocated to the interface is based on the class of the connected powered device. If LLDP power negotiation is enabled, the powered device can request more or less power. LLDP power negotiation is enabled by default in class management mode.

    If LLDP power negotiation is disabled, the power allocation is determined solely by the class of the connected powered device. If there is no powered device connected, standard 15.4W power is allocated on the interface. For more information about disabling LLDP power negotiation, see Device Discovery Using LLDP and LLDP-MED on Switches.

  • static—The amount of power allocated to the interface is determined by the value of the maximum-power statement, not the class of the connected powered device. This amount is allocated even when a powered device is not connected to the interface, ensuring that power is available when needed.

    Note:

    Static mode is not supported in PoE-bt.

  • high-power—(ACX2000 routers only) ACX2000 PoE interfaces support power delivery of up to 65 W per port using all four pairs of Ethernet RJ45 cables. Traditional PoE ports use only two pairs of Ethernet cable for power delivery. According to the IEEE 802.3af standard, each port can deliver a maximum power of up to 32 W. With high-power mode of power delivery over all four pairs, the power sourcing equipment (PSE) has an option to deliver up to 65 W per port, provided the powered devices request this high power over all four pairs of the Ethernet cable. By default, high-power mode is not enabled and has to be explicitly enabled. When the PoE controller is configured for high-power mode, the PoE controller does not deliver power to normal powered devices that request power over two pairs.
