4.8 Power over Ethernet (PoE)
PoE provides a way to distribute low-voltage power across the network
using existing copper Ethernet cable to an endpoint PD (Powered Device).
This centralized, reliable source of power allows network devices such as
IP telephones, wireless LAN access points, surveillance cameras, and other
embedded appliances to operate without additional power adapters or AC
outlets. You can configure the port power as follows:
Port: select the port to configure
Port State: enable/disable the port power
Priority: set the port priority. Low numeric value indicates a high priority.
