12 Power over Ethernet Commands
The commands in this group control the power that can be delivered to attached
PoE devices through RJ-45 ports 1-24.
The switch’s power management enables total switch power and individual port
power to be controlled within a configured power budget. Port power can be
automatically turned on and off for connected devices, and a per-port power
priority can be set so that the switch never exceeds its allocated power budget.
When a device is connected to a switch port, its power requirements are detected
by the switch before power is supplied. If the power required by a device exceeds
the power budget of the port or the whole switch, power is not supplied.
power inline
compatible
This command allows the switch to detect and provide power to powered devices
