Chapter 1: Overview simultaneously as long as the total is below its power budget. If the total exceeds the available power budget, you should consider reducing the number of PoE devices so that all of the devices receive power. Otherwise, the switch powers a subset of the devices, based on port prioritization. The switch can handle different power requirements on different ports. This enables you to connect different classes of PoE equipment to the ports on the switch.
x510 Series Installation Guide for Stand-alone Switches of the power supplies fail or lose power. If you limit the power requirements of the critical devices connected to a switch to less than 185 watts, the PoE power provided by a single power supply, a switch will have sufficient power to support the critical devices even if it has only one functional power supply. Wiring Implementation The IEEE 802.

Problem 5: Network performance between a twisted pair port on the switch and a network device is slow. Solution: There might be a duplex mode mismatch between the port and the network device.
Chapter 6: Troubleshooting Problem 8: The AT-x510-28GPX or AT-x510-52GPX Switch is not providing power to a PoE device. Solutions: Try the following: 84 Review the PD’s documentation to confirm that the device supports Mode A of the IEEE 802.3at standard. Mode A is one of two modes that define the connector pins that deliver the power from the port on the line card to the PD. In Mode A, the power is carried on pins 1, 2, 3, and 6 on the RJ-45 port, the same pins that carry the network traffic.
