Standard PoE on Catalyst 3500 XL series (with inline power)

Jul 09, 2009 4 Replies

Ok, so i have a few 24 Port catalyst 3500 XL series with Inline Power... Does anyone know how to enable normal PoE on the device, so i can use it with non-cisco hardware.. i don't require the inline features for PoE for the hardware i am trying to power up...



Cheers in advance, Dave N.


conf t int f0/X inline power always

Ok, i do not have any 'always' option for inline power... I have the following:

Office-Testing-3500(config-i)#power inline ? auto Automatically detect and power inline devices never Never apply inline power

Is there any other way to always enable PoE on a specific port on the catalyst 3500?

Cheers,

This switch only supports the Cisco proprietary PoE standard, not the IEEE

802.11af PoE standard.

So only cisco IP phones & ap's will work from it?
