General Installation

Connect the uplink port to your Router or Ethernet switch. Connect the POE ports to your devices – it should power up and connect – and you are all set. The WS-POES-8-7 detects 568A and 568B cabling – so no crossover cables are required. Note below for Power Supply Options

We offer 56, 48, 24, 18 and 12 volt power supplies – if you need a power supply, please call – If your device data sheet shows “48v 350ma” please understand that this is not the power your device needs, but the max power that is available according to the 802.3af spec. For example, a Polycom VOIP phone is 802.3af compatible, but needs about 4 watts to operate. Therefore, one 8 port switch and a 30 watt power supply can power 7 phones with a lower power draw.
