Profile PoE

The PoE profile is used to configure Power Over Ethernet (PoE) on a port. PoE allows both ethernet data and DC 48V power to flow over an ethernet cable to power a device.

PoE Profile Attributes

Attribute	Values	Default	Req	Description
Name	Printable string	N/A	Y	The name of the PoE Profile
poe-port-config				Container
Admin-state	enabled \| disabled	Enabled	N	Controls whether PoE is enabled or disabled on the port.
Power-pairs	signal \| spare	Signal	N	Whether to place the PoE power onto the signal or A pairs, or on the spare of B pairs for delivering power. For 802.3at and af, most installations use the signal pair. This attribute is ignored for 4PPoE as both pairs are used in that case.
Power-priority	critical \| high \| low	High	N	What priority to put on this port? When power is limited by the ONT’s capacity to fully power all pairs, critical ports are powered first followed by high, then low ports. This ensures that mission-critical ports remain powered
