Using PoE (PoE Models Only)
Power over Ethernet has become increasingly popular due in large part to the reliability provided by PoE
Ethernet switches that supply the necessary power to Powered Devices (PD) when AC power is not readily
available or cost-prohibitive to provide locally.
Power over Ethernet can be used with:
• Surveillance cameras
• Security I/O sensors
• Industrial wireless access points
• Emergency IP phones
In fact, it’s not uncommon for video, voice, and high-rate industrial application data transfers to be integrated
into one network. Moxa’s PoE switches are equipped with many advanced PoE management functions,
providing vital security systems with a convenient and reliable Ethernet network. Moreover, Moxa’s advanced
PoE switches support the high power PoE+ standard, 24 VDC direct power input, and 20 ms fast recovery
redundancy, Turbo Ring and Turbo Chain.
Please note that two types of PoE function settings are available, depending on the specific model of switch.
Type Models Supported
Type 1 EDS-P510, EDS-P506A-4PoE, IKS-6726-8PoE
Type 2 EDS-P510A-8PoE, IKS-6728-8PoE-4GTXSFP
