7.2 FreeSpeak Edge transceiver connector panel
7.3 Powering the transceiver
The transceivers can use:
l Power over Ethernet (PoE). Connect to LAN 1 RJ45.
Note: The transceiver is a Class 3 PoE device.
l Local power. Use the supplied power supply (12V DC 5 amp).
l USB power from a USB battery pack. For standalone mode, this is 3 A, 5V.
7.3.1 Power redundancy
You can simultaneously power the FreeSpeak Edge transceiver using a local power supply and
PoE. In this case, the following applies:
l If the transceiver is using a local power supply, adding a PoE connection causes no
power interruption.
l If the transceiver is using a PoE connection, adding a local power supply interrupts the
power supply for 1 to 2 seconds.
l If the transceiver is using both local and PoE, if you remove the local power supply
connection, the power supply is interrupted for 1 to 2 seconds and then continues using
the PoE supply.
l If the transceiver is using both local and PoE, if you remove the PoE connection, the
transceiver continues to operate without interruption using the local power supply.
