Series 4000:
Power-over-Ethernet Option Kit
Installation Guide
The Power-over-Ethernet Option Kit enables you to supply power to a Series 4000 time-
clock through the Ethernet cable that connects the timeclock to the network. Supplying
power through the Ethernet cable eliminates the need to install an external electrical outlet,
or to install an AC outlet inside the timeclock and run an AC power cable to the timeclock.
If you supply power to the timeclock using Ethernet cable, you must install a backup battery
to ensure that the timeclock remains operational if a network power outage occurs or net-
work maintenance requires the power to be shut down. The Power-over-Ethernet Option
Kit is available in two configurations: a kit that includes a Backup Battery Option Kit, and a
kit that does not include the Backup Battery Option Kit. The two kit configurations are avail-
able so that you can order the appropriate kit, depending on whether a backup battery is
already installed in the timeclock.
Important:
Your network must use an IEEE 802.3af compliant power source to supply power to
the Series 4000 timeclock over Ethernet lines.
Each Series 4000 timeclock must be connected directly to the network hub or switch.
The maximum length of the Ethernet cable that can connect the network hub or
switch to a Series 4000 timeclock is 328 ft. (100 meters).
Basic Layout and Network Requirements Summary
The following illustration presents a simple system layout that includes the Power-over-
Ethernet capability:
Important: The Series 4000 timeclock is considered a Class 0 Powered Device (PD)
that allocates a power level at the output of the IEEE 803.3af Power Sourcing
Equipment (PSE) of 15.4 watts. Use this classification when calculating the number of
Series 4000 timeclocks that can be supported by your IEEE 802.3af equipment.
Tools You Need
To install the Power-over-Ethernet Option Kit (backup battery and module), you need a No.
2 Phillips screwdriver and the L-shaped security wrench (hex wrench) that shipped with the
Series 4000 timeclock.
Documentation You Need
To complete the full installation of a Series 4000 timeclock that uses the Power-over-Ether-
net option, you need the following installation guides:
Series 4000 Timeclock Installation Guide
Series 4000: Backup Battery Option Kit Installation Guide
Series 4000: Power-over-Ethernet Option Kit Installation Guide (this guide)
Important: Before You Begin
Perform the following tasks before you begin installing the Power-over-Ethernet module:
1. Follow the instructions in the Series 4000 Timeclock Installation Guide until the guide
directs you to begin the installation of the Power-over-Ethernet Option Kit.
2. If you ordered the kit that includes the Backup Battery Option Kit, install the backup bat-
tery now. Follow the instructions in the Series 4000: Backup Battery Option Kit Installa-
tion Guide until the guide directs you back to this Series 4000: Power-over-Ethernet
Option Kit Installation Guide.
Installing the Power-over-Ethernet module
Parts of the Power-over-Ethernet Option Kit
Power-over-Ethernet module (1)
Bracket and two screws (2)
A Backup Battery Option Kit may also be included, depending on which configuration of the
Power-over-Ethernet Option Kit you ordered. Separate installation instructions are included
with the Backup Battery Option Kit.
Installation procedure
After you complete the tasks in the “Important: Before You Begin” section, follow these
steps to install the Power-over-Ethernet module:
1. Attach the module to the bracket. Refer to the following illustration and perform the fol-
lowing steps:
a. Align the slots on each side of the module with the screw holes on the bracket.
b. Install the screws to attach the module to the bracket.
2. Refer to the following illustration to remove the wire clip (1) from the base of the time-
clock. Squeeze the clip, as indicated by the arrows, until it releases from the two plastic
channels in the base. Then, lift and remove the clip.
3. Install the module assembly (1) in the base of the timeclock by sliding it onto the two
plastic channels that were used by the wire clip you removed. The illustration shows the
right channel in the base (2). There is another channel for the left side of the module
assembly.
