Powering Up the DPoE™ Power Patch Panel
 
17. Apply power the panel. Once power is applied to the unit, the DPoE™ Power Patch Panel will go 
through its power up sequence. The following table describes the behavior of the unit as viewed 
from the front and the back.

Both network status LEDs will light amber for two 
seconds 
The panel status Light-Emitting Diode (LED) will 
light red for about 10 seconds. After that, a LED 
test sequence of the port status LEDs will take 
place, lighting each port status LED amber. It will 
appear as if the port status LED is “walking” from 
port 1 through port 24. 
If there is no cable connected to the IN 
management port (Step 9 above), both network 
status LEDs will turn ff. 
If the Patch Panel is configured for Dynamic Host 
Control Protocol (DHCP) address assignment and 
a cable is NOT connected to the IN management 
port on the rear of the panel, the panel status LED 
will blink green. 
If the DPoE™ Power Patch Panel is configured 
for DHCP address assignment (default factory 
setting), the network status LED above the IN 
management port will stay amber and the 
network status LED above the OUT management 
port will turn off. This indicates that the panel is 
actively requesting addressing information from 
the network. Once this information is received 
(this could take up to a minute), the network 
status LED above the IN management port will 
turn green. 
If the DPoE™ Power Patch Panel is configured for 
DHCP address assignment (default factory setting), 
the panel status LED will flash amber. This 
indicates that the panel is actively requesting 
addressing information from the network. Once this 
information is received (this could take up to a 
minute), the panel status LED will flash green as 
power is applied to the unit. (See page 5, Figure 1: 
DPoE™ Power Patch Panel (Front View) 
and page
6, Figure 2: DPoE™ Power Patch Panel (Rear 
View)
for a graphical view of the LEDs on the
DPoE
™ Power Patch Panel.)
If the panel were set to static IP addressing rather 
than DHCP, the network status LED above the IN 
management port will immediately turn green. 
If the panel were set to static IP addressing rather 
than DHCP, the panel status LED will flash green 
and continue flashing as long as power is applied 
to the unit.
