IEEE 802.3af-2003 Compliant

Many currently available in-line PoE

 

 

 

 

 

 

powering options are not standards-based,

 

 

 

 

 

thus requiring coordination between each

 

 

 

 

 

 

device’s power needs and the technical

 

 

 

 

 

 

capabilities of the in-line powering unit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Any port on the PANDUIT® DPoE™ Power

 

 

 

 

 

Patch Panel can support the 802.3af-2003

 

 

 

 

 

standard or the legacy Cisco powering

 

 

 

 

 

 

scheme.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Full power to all ports

With all ports on the panel capable of

 

 

 

 

 

 

delivering full PoE power, there’s no need to

 

 

 

 

 

load balance across panels, design special

 

 

 

 

 

wiring schemes or leave ports unused in the

 

 

 

 

 

panel.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Increased System Reliability

The PANDUIT® DPoE™ Power Patch Panel

 

 

 

 

 

does not use an internal fan. Fans reduce

 

 

 

 

 

the system reliability. In addition, the

 

 

 

 

 

 

eliminated need for separate “midspan”

 

 

 

 

 

 

patch panels increases the network

 

 

 

 

 

 

availability.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Simultaneous support for the Cisco

By supporting both methods on each port,

 

 

 

 

powering scheme along with the 802.3af-

the DPoE™ Power Patch Panel provides

 

 

 

 

 

2003 standard

ultimate flexibility without the need for

 

 

 

 

 

 

separate panels for each powering scheme

 

 

 

 

 

and without the need to install separate

 

 

 

 

 

 

power modules. In addition, devices that

 

 

 

 

 

 

don’t require PoE powering may also be

 

 

 

 

 

 

mixed in the same panel.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Power Prioritization

In the event of low-power conditions, a NMS,

 

 

 

 

 

working in conjunction with the DPoE

 

 

 

 

 

 

Power Patch Panels, can use the pre-

 

 

 

 

 

 

established port priorities to ensure mission-

 

 

 

 

 

critical ports on the network of panels

 

 

 

 

 

 

continue to receive PoE power as long as

 

 

 

 

 

possible.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Easier Local Management

Multi-colored LEDs on the DPoE™ Power

 

 

 

 

 

Patch Panel allow technicians to instantly

 

 

 

 

 

 

know the status of each port. Additional

 

 

 

 

 

 

LEDs reflect management and panel status.

 

 

 

 

 

Identification labels on the front and rear of

 

 

 

 

 

the system allow the technician to note the

 

 

 

 

 

panel number, the port number and wiring

 

 

 

 

 

scheme information for both the Ethernet

 

 

 

 

 

 

and PoE sides of the panel.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Easier Remote Management

The optional EM allows network operators to

 

 

 

 

 

easily view and manage a network of

 

 

 

 

 

 

DPoE™ Power Patch Panels using industry-

 

 

 

 

 

standard Simplified Network Management

 

 

 

 

 

Protocol (SNMP).
