supply power. When ports have the same priority, the lower numbered port will have a higher 
priority. Possible priority values are:
• Low. Low priority. 
• Medium. Medium priority.
• High. High priority.
• Critical. Critical priority.
The factory default is Low.
5.  Select the Power Mode. 
• 802.3 af. The PoE port power is limited to IEEE 802.3af mode only. A powered device 
(PD) that requires IEEE 802.3at power does not receive power if the port functions in 
the IEEE 802.3af mode.
• Legacy. A port is powered using high-inrush current, used by legacy powered devices 
(PDs) whose power requirement is greater than 15W at initial power up.
• Pre-802.3at. This means that a port is powered in the IEEE 802.3af mode initially, 
then is switched to the high-power IEEE 802.3at mode before 75 msec. This mode 
needs to be used if PD is not performing Layer 2 Classification or if the PSE (the 
switch) is performing two-event Layer 1 Classification.
• 802.3at. The PoE port power is powered in the IEEE 802.3at mode, and is backward 
compatible with IEEE 802.3af. The factory default is 802.3at mode. In the 802.3at 
mode, if the switch detects that the attached PD requests more power than the IEEE 
802.3af, but is not an IEEE 802.3at Class 4 device, then the PD does not receive 
power from the switch.
6.  Set the Power Limit Type to control the maximum power that a port can deliver. Use of 
these options may lead to a situation where the port reserves a higher amount of PoE power 
than the port can actually deliver to a connected PD. This happens when the PD reports 
class information incorrectly. Note that incorrect setting of this field may prevent a PDF from 
receiving PoE power from a given port(s).
Possible values are:
• None. This value allows the port to draw up to class 0 max power in case of low 
power mode, and up to class 4 max power in case of high power mode.
• Class. This value means that the port power limit is equal to the class of the PD 
attached.
• User. This value means that the port power limit is equal to the value specified by 
Power Limit. 
The factory default is User.
7.  In the Power Limit (mw) field, specify the maximum power that can be delivered by a port. 
The range is 3000–30000 watts with step of 1 milliwatt (mw). The factory default is 30000 
mW.
8.  In the Detection Type field, select the PD detection mechanism performed by the PSE port. 
Possible values are:
• IEEE 802. 4-Point Resistive Detection is done.
