Quick Start | PoE-90W-PSU Installation
Learn to efficiently install the PoE-90W-PSU for optimal power delivery with your NV-32-H and NV-21-HU devices.
Overview
The PoE-90W-PSU is an optional Auxiliary Power Supply Accessory for use with the NV-32-H and NV-21-HU Network Video Endpoints.
Setup | Installation
Preliminary Steps
Perform the following before you begin the installation:
- Apply AC power to the PoE-90W-PSU, using an operational AC cable with an appropriate ground connection
- Connect an output Ethernet cable to the DATA & POWER OUT port
- Verify that a power-ready Ethernet compatible device is connected
Warning
Do not use a crossover cable between the PD-9601GS output port and the load device.
- The PoE-90W-PSU can be placed on a desktop. Before placing:
- Do not cover or block the airflow to the PoE with any foreign objects
- Keep the unit away from excessive heat and humidity and free from vibration and dust
- Ensure that the cable length from Ethernet network source to the terminal does not exceed 100 meters (330 feet). The PoE is not a repeater and does not amplify the Ethernet data signal.
- Use a splitter if desired; ensure that the splitter is connected close to the terminal and not on the PoE-90W-PSU.
- No on/off switch exists; simply plug the device into an AC power source.
Installing
Perform the following steps to install the unit.
- Connect the PoE-90W-PSU to an AC outlet (100–240 VAC), using a standard power cord.
- Connect the DATA IN jack (input) to the remote Ethernet network switch's Patch panel and the DATA & POWER OUT jack (output) to the terminal.
Port Indicator LEDs
A set of indicators displays the status of the PoE-90W-PSU and its ports. The following table lists the LED color and their indicated behavior.
| Port LED Color | Indicated Behavior |
|---|---|
| Blue blinking | Power is on (Active) |
| Green on | A remote terminal is connected |
| Green blinking | Overload state or short-circuit |
Troubleshooting
The following problem and resolution sequences to assist in troubleshooting of minor operating problems.
PoE-90W-PSU does not power up
- Verify that a reliable power cord is used.
- Verify that the voltage at the power inlet is between 100–240 VAC.
- Remove and reapply power to the device and check the indicators during the power up sequence.
PoE-90W-PSU does not operate
- Verify that the PoE-90W-PSU detects a NV device connection (Green LED).
- Verify that the cable used is a standard Category 5e/6, straight‑wired cable, with four twisted pairs.
- If an external power splitter is in use, replace it with a known-good splitter.
- Ensure that the input Ethernet cable is connected to the DATA IN port.
- Verify that the NV device is connected to the DATA & POWER port.
- Reconnect the same NV device to a different PoE-90W-PSU. If it works, there may be a faulty port or RJ45 connection.
- Verify that there is no short over any of the twisted pair cables or over the RJ45 connectors.
The connected NV device powers but shows no data link
- Verify that the port indicator on the front panel is continuously lit.
- If an external power splitter is in use, replace it with a known-good splitter.
- Verify that for this link, you are using a standard UTP/FTP Category 5e/6 straight (non-crossover) cabling, with all four pairs.
- Verify that the Ethernet cable length is less than 100 meters from the Ethernet source to the load/remote terminal.
- Reconnect the same NV device to a different PoE-90W-PSU. If it works, there may be a faulty port or RJ45 connection.
