Cisco Inline Power Support
Cisco Inline Power Support

Cisco launched inline Power over Ethernet (PoE) in March, 2000 to power Cisco Aironet access points. Currently, Cisco has shipped more than 18 million inline power capable ports on the Catalyst 3500, 4500, and 6500 families of Ethernet switches. PoE was quickly recognized as a desirable feature for networked products and the IEEE began standardization efforts to enable multi-vendor interoperability. Devices that use PoE include access points, IP phones, and video cameras. With the recent ratification of the IEEE 802.3af PoE standard, Cisco supports both IEEE 802.3af and prestandard PoE powered devices. Cisco has also enhanced prestandard power management using Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP) negotiation to include the Cisco IEEE 802.3af compliant devices to further optimize inline power management. The data in this section is based on powering single- and dual-band Cisco Aironet 1200 series access points with 802.11b, 802.11a, and 802.11g radios. Dual-band access points require more power than single-band access points. Table 1 contains an inline power matrix that illustrates the power capabilities of several prestandard Cisco inline power sources.
Note
Table 1 includes only the Cisco Aironet 1200 Series Access Point because of its dual-band operation. There are no known problems with powering single band access points.

IEEE 802.3af Power Support
IEEE 802.3af Power Support

Cisco is a contributing member of the IEEE 802.3af committee and strives to continue the evolution of technology standards by delivering IEEE 802.3af-compliant PoE power sources, such as the Cisco Catalyst 6500, 4500, 3560, and 3750 switches. For investment protection, all Cisco 802.3af compliant PoE products also support the pre-standard Cisco PoE implementation for compatibility with the installed base of Cisco powered end-devices, such as IP telephones and wireless access points. For more information is available at this URL: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/netsol/ns340/ns394/ns147/ns412/networking_solutions_package.html

Testing Scope and Results

Testing was performed by Technical Marketing engineers, hardware engineers, and System Test engineers to determine the inline power capabilities of several Cisco products. The following Cisco products were tested:

Cisco Aironet 1200 series access points (with 2.4-GHz radio, 5-GHz radio, and dual-band radios) Cisco Aironet 1120 and 1121 access points (with 2.4-GHz radio). Catalyst 6000 Catalyst 4000 Catalyst 4500 Catalyst 3550 Catalyst 3750 Catalyst 3500 XL Cisco 2600 series router Cisco 3600 series router Cisco 3700 series router
The scope of testing included: basic verification of inline power provisioning, testing for dissimilarities in horizontal and vertical scale on waveforms, and switch ASIC/PHY interactions and functionality. The Catalyst 6500, 4000m and 3500 XL switches were tested for transient, continuous, and fault responses.
Cisco Aironet Power Over Ethernet Application Note OL-6862-01
The Catalyst 3550 was tested for the following: switch management on new card type and port identity, SNMP recognition on new card type and port identity, LED operation, post reporting, access point power management, SBC alarms, CDP alarms, and hot-swap support. The following sections contain inline power support details and test results for each Cisco product.
Catalyst 6000
For inline power support, Cisco CatOS 5.5(1) or later is recommended. The Catalyst 6000 switch provides 48-volt DC inline power over standard Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable up to 100 meters. The Catalyst 6500 supports inline power via several line cards including WS-X6348-RJ-45, WS-X6348-RJ45V, WS-X6148-RJ45V, WS-X6148-GE-TX, and the WS-X6548-GE-TX. The maximum wattage per port supported by this product is typically 7 W, but you might see up to 12.5 W per port because of different types of over current protection being used. These line cards are field upgradable to support IEEE 802.3af. When the maximum wattage per port is 7 W, dual-band access points are not supported because of their extra power requirement. The WS-X6148-GE-TX and the WS-X6548-GE-TX cards both support Cisco inline power (up to 11 W per port), but they are not recommended for dual-band access points. The voice power module can provide a total of 386 W, which is sufficient to power 48 phones simultaneously. Cisco IP phones use approximately 6.5 W each, but their design does not limit the amount of power that can be drawn from a single port. To support the demand for IP phone inline power, Cisco has developed a 2500-watt power supply (WS-CAC-2500W, WS-CDC-2500W) for the Catalyst 6000 switch family. The WS-CAC-2500W power supply provides 1300 W when connected to a 110 VAC source and 2500 W when connected to a 220 VAC source. The WS-CDC-2500W power supply always provides 2500 W. Internal testing and field use does not show any inline power issues with this chassis, which includes all shipping line cards that support inline power 48-port RJ-45 and Voice daughter boards (WS-X6348-RJ-45 and WS-X6348-RJ45V) for base Indus and Hydra modules.

OL-6862-01
Catalyst 4000/4500
For inline power support, Cisco CatOS 6.1(1) is recommended. The Catalyst 4000 family of switches can currently provide 6.3 W per port with the WS-X4148-RJ-45V line card. However, the Catalyst 4006 provides inline power directly from the Fast Ethernet module and only can support 400 W per line card. A Catalyst 4500 line card supports 15.4 W per port for all ports. The Catalyst 4003 uses the Catalyst Inline Power Patch Panel to provide inline power. To support the new demand for inline IP phone power, Cisco developed an auxiliary DC power shelf that supplies the Catalyst 4006 with 48 VDC required to power IP phones. The Catalyst 4000 can only provide 7 W from an inline power port. For additional information, refer to these URL: http://wwwin.cisco.com/cmc/cc/pd/si/casi/ca4000/prodlit/c4k2_ds.htm http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps4324/
Catalyst 3750
The Catalyst 3750 can provide 15.4 W per port for all 24 ports. The Catalyst 3750 is the first Catalyst switch to be IEEE 802.3af compliant and supports all power classes of inline power devices. Power class details are shown below:

Class 1 requires 3 W of power Class 2 requires 7 W of power Class 3 requires 15 W of power Class 4 is reserved
Catalyst 3550-24-PWR
The Catalyst 3550-24-PWR provides 15.4 W per port at the switch output. The Catalyst 3550-24-PWR supports the Cisco proprietary inline power implementation. The inline power feature is 48 VDC power provided over standard Category 5 UTP cabling up to 100 meters. The inline power controller is a quad controller (group of 4 ports) and supplies 48 V to each of the ports individually. There are 6 controllers per system. Internal testing revealed no known power issues with the 1200 series access point. For additional information, refer to this URL: Inline Power Switch Data Sheet: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps646/
Catalyst 3524-PWR-XL
For inline power support, Cisco IOS Release 12.0(5) or later is recommended for this switch. The Catalyst 3524-PWR-XL switch (WS-C3524-PWR-XL-EN) supports Cisco only prestandard inline power and provides a maximum of 6 W per port for 24 ports. The power supply provides 144 W, which allows more power to be provisioned for individual ports provided that all ports are not populated. Internal testing and field use shows no known inline power issues with this switch. This product has reached End of Sale and its replacement is the Catalyst 3550-PWR. For additional information, refer to these URLs: Inline Power Switch Data Sheet: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/switches/ps637/ps641/ Inline power configuration syntax: http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/c2900xl/29_35wc5/scg/swports.htm#xtocid33
Cisco 2600, 3600, and 3700 Series Routers

These inline power capable Cisco routers provide 15 W per port, but not on all ports simultaneously. The 16-port module can supply 10 W on every port or 15 W per port until the 160 W software allocation is reached. The 36-port module operates like the 16-port module, but this module allocates 360 W. The Cisco 3745 supports two power supplies, but the Cisco 3725 only supports a single power supply. The routers use Cisco CDP negotiation with powered devices for power allocation. The Cisco 2600 and 3600 series routers require attachment of an external power supply to the daughter card connector on the NM-16ESW-PWR four-port power chassis, which provides external power for the PWR-CHASSIS-360W. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(2)xt or later is recommended for the Cisco 2600 and 3600 routers. The PWR-PS-360W is a single 360-W power supply for the Cisco EtherSwitch Network Module products. The PPWR-PSCHASSIS is a power supply chassis for the Cisco 48-V (360-W) power supply. The Cisco 3700 also uses the NM-16ESW-PWR power supply, but the external power supply is connected internally based on the internal architecture of the daughter card. The Cisco 3700 also supports the NMD-36-ESW-PWR power supply. Cisco IOS Release 12.2(8)T or later is recommended for the Cisco 2700 router.

Power Requirements for Access Points and Bridges
Power Requirements for Access Points and Bridges

Access point or powered device (PD) input power is measured with the access point connected to the switch without cable resistance. The switch power or Power Source Equipment (PSE) power is measured using the resistance of 100 m of Category 5 (Cat 5) Ethernet cable and is generally the maximum power draw from the switch. Table 3 contains power values that were calculated using the power equation shown below:
Note
The power equation uses these terms: PowerPSE = power from the switch, V = Voltage, R = cable resistance in ohms, PowerPD = power consumed by the access point in watts.
V 2 V 4 ( 4 R V 2 PowerPD ) PowerPSE = ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------2 R
Note
The worst-case voltage was determined to be 40 V. The resistance of the Cat 5 cabling was determined to be 10 Ohms.

Cisco PoE and Cisco Intelligent Power Management

Cisco recently introduced IEEE 802.3af compliant switch products that also support Cisco pre-standard PoE. The Cisco Catalyst Intelligent switches support Cisco Intelligent Power Management (Cisco IPM). Cisco IPM provides power management capabilities beyond the IEEE802.3af Power Classification feature to enable granular, optimized, and scalable power delivery for more efficient power management and prioritization of power delivery. Cisco IPM is currently supported by a firmware upgrade in the WS-C3550, WS-C3560, and WS-C3570 platforms (you should refer to Cisco CCO for available upgrades). Table 4 contains a partial list of Cisco PoE capable devices and the supported access points.

Note
The transportation power injector should be used when 12 volt (car battery) power is provided or when the injector needs to be powered using an IEEE 802.3af power splitter from PowerDsine because the inrush current is less.

PowerDsine Midspan Products
Most Cisco Aironet access points use inline PoE from power injectors or Cisco powered EtherSwitches, but the Cisco Aironet 350, 1100, and 1200 series access points do not directly support IEEE 802.3af power sources. These access points were designed before the IEEE 802.3af power standard was ratified and must use third party products such as PowerDsine to support IEEE 802.3af power sources. PowerDsine offers midspan power products that allow customers to deploy a combination of IEEE 802.3af powered devices and non-IEEE 802.3af powered devices such as the Cisco Aironet 1120 and 1121 access points and the Cisco Aironet 350 and 1200 series access points. PowerDsines 6006 and 6012 Inline Power Midspan (residing between the Ethernet switch and the access point) supplies power to the access point using unused pairs of wires within the Category 5 cable. This is similar to the capacitive power detection method used by Cisco Aironet power injectors, but the power polarity is reversed. The PowerDsine products apply a positive voltage on pairs 4 and 5 and a negative voltage on pairs 7 and 8. Cisco Aironet power injectors apply a positive voltage on pairs 7 and 8 and a negative voltage on pairs 4 and 5. PowerDsine 6006 and 6012 products comply with the IEEE 802.3af standard, but also supports a second detection method. These products first attempt to detect powered devices using the IEEE 802.3af resistive power detection method, then if a powered device is not detected, they switch to capacitive power detection mode. When using capacitive power detection, these products can successfully power Cisco access points provided the power pins are switched to the correct polarity. The polarity reversal is accomplished using a PowerDsine adapter cable referred to as a prestandard passive splitter.

Figure 1 shows the PowerDsine Midspan hub and the prestandard passive splitter.
Figure 1 PowerDsine Midspan Hub
Note
When using the PowerDsine adapter cable (prestandard passive splitter), PowerDsine recommends that this adapter cable is installed near the access point. The adapter cable (part number PD-PS-401/Cisco) is available through CDW. For additional information, refer to this URL: http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/default.aspx?EDC=519479 Table 8 lists the PowerDsine passive splitters and the Cisco Aironet access points supported.

Testing Methodology
The PowerDsine 6006 Mid-Span unit was connected to a Cisco 2900 XL switch (see Figure 1) and six Cisco 1100 series access points (using PowerDsine PD-6995-300 PoE adapters) were connected to the network. The test setup used mixed lengths of Category 5 Ethernet cable and two 100m cables (maximum distance supported by PowerDsine). All six access points ran without problems. The same test was also performed using six Cisco 1200 series access points. The 1200 series access points were powered using the PowerDsine PD-PS-401/Cisco prestandard passive splitter. The 1200 series dual-band access points (with two radios) require approximately 11 W per port of power from the PowerDsine hub. The test using the heavier load (1200 series access points) ran for one week without problems. All access points continued to function and wireless clients were able to browse and FTP across the network without incident.
Note
The Cisco Aironet 1120 and 1121 access points can operate with or without the PowerDsine prestandard passive splitter cable because the access points have internal diodes to allow operation regardless of the power polarity.
Note
Testing was done in a lab environment. Cisco suggested that customers perform their own testing to verify proper operation in their operating environments. For additional information on PowerDsine products and their compatibility with Cisco products, refer to this URL: www.powerdsine.com
PowerDsine 48 Volt Active Splitter

When using a non-Cisco IEEE 802.3af switch, you can use the PowerDsine PD-AS-601 Series Active Splitter (co-located with the access point) to convert from IEEE 802.3af PoE to local power and Ethernet (see Figure 2).

The PowerDsine PD-AS-601/48 is a 48-V active splitter capable of supporting the Cisco Aironet 1120 and 1121 access points and Cisco Aironet 1200 series access points. Because 48 V is the most common voltage used for PoE devices, PowerDsine also calls this active splitter model a universal splitter (part number PDPS800). PowerDsine also offers the PD-AS-601 in various voltages for other applications.

PowerDsine 18 Volt Active Splitter

The PowerDsine PD-AS-601/18 Active Splitter (18 Volts) can be used with the Cisco Aironet AIR-PWRINJ-BLR2T (12 to 40 VDC) transportation power injector to power the Cisco Aironet 1300 series access point or bridge from a non-Cisco IEEE 802.3af power source (see Figure 5). You can mount the remote access point or bridge up to 200 meters from the switch (100 meters on each side of the power injector). The Cisco Aironet power injector uses dual RG-6 coaxial cable to supply power and Ethernet to the Cisco Aironet 1300 series access point or bridge.
