Power Over Ethernet
The 10/100Base-T ports on the AT-IE200-6FP switch support Power over Ethernet (PoE), which is a standard
whereby DC power is provided by the switch to network devices over the network twisted pair cables. The
switches support PoE (IEEE 802.3af) and PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at). For more information, refer to “Power Over
Ethernet” on page 26.
Cable Requirements
The cable requirements of the ports are given in Table 1.
Port Pinouts
