3.7 Powering

up

The Power over Ethernet Midspan has no on/off switch. To apply or
remove power to the Midspan, insert or remove the power cable from the
AC receptacle on the rear panel of the unit.

With power applied, the Midspan powers-up and the internal fan
operates; then, the device runs through its power-on self-test (POST),
which takes less than 10 seconds. During the POST, all ports are
disabled and the indicators illuminate in the following sequence:

1. AC indicator illuminates orange

2. Port indicators and AC power indicator illuminate green.

3. Main AC indicator remains lit green; port indicators are off.

Ports are now enabled for normal operation.
