Example PoE Configuration (S-Series)

An S--Series S3 chassis is configured as follows:

• Two 1200W PoE power supplies are installed in the PoE subsystem. Because one of the power supplies is redundant, the power available for PoE is 1200W.
• Two modules that support PoE are installed in the chassis in slot 1 and slot 2. PDs are connected to all 72 ports on the module in slot 1. No PDs are connected to the module in slot 2.
• System power available for PoE is allocated evenly—600W to each PoE module. With this configuration, there is not enough power available for all of the PDs connected to the module in slot 1.

To make power available for all the PDs connected to the module in slot 1, change the system‘s power allocation mode:

S3(su)->set inlinepower mode manual

Now, none of the 1200W available for PoE is assigned to the PoE modules. Assign the 1200W, or some portion of the 1200W to the PoE modules to power the attached PDs.
