PoE Power over Ethernet - Control

Commander PoE switches can provide standard IEE803.3AF power to all eight 10/100 ports
simultaneously. In addition, “Hi Power”, up to 25 Watts at the load can be provided. PoE is
enabled by selecting the PoE Control menu.


The display shows the port number and name. The PoE mode indicates which pairs of the
Ethernet cable are used for power. The status indicates if the port is searching (S) for a powered
device or is disabled (D) or normal (N). Each port may be individually enabled to allow PoE
power to be provided. Use the “Stat” drop down box to select enabled or disabled as required.

The Auto Reset may be enabled to have the PoE controllers automatically cycle power to a port
under fault until a proper power configuration is determined. The Alt A back off timing set the B
pair to power first and if a powered device is not found, the A pair is tried.

After making changes, select Save to make your settings permanent.
