Section 4. TPS matrix concept Page 19 / 119
4.1.2. Power over Ethernet (PoE)
TPS input and output ports are able to supply other HDBase-T compliant devices over the
TPS lines which are PoE-compliant as well. In this case, the connected transmitter or
receiver does not require a local power supply.
ATTENTION!
The Ethernet ports do not support PoE. Only the TPS ports support PoE function.
WARNING!
The remote power feature of TPS 95 series extenders is not PoE-compatible. Thus,
TPS 95 series cannot be powered remotely by the MMX6x2 matrices (but the video
signal is transmitted to/from the extenders). If a TPS 95 extender is connected to the
matrix, make sure that the remote power jumper of the extender is removed or set to
'Remote power disabled' position.
The PoE feature in the practice
The TPS ports of the matrix are in accordance with IEEE 802.3af (PoE) standard. The
feature is demonstrated on below figure:
Figure 4-2. Extenders supplied without local power
The concept
Supply the connected extenders through the CATx (TPS) cables without local adaptors.
Settings
Extenders: the device must be PoE-compatible or else the feature will not work.
Matrix: make sure the PoE option on the TPS port is enabled (which is the default
setting) via LDC in the port properties window; see section 6.4.9 on page 51.
INFO
PoE-compatible and not compatible devices can be connected simultaneously as the
feature can be set individually on each port.
