1.2 About the Power over Ethernet Injector Hub
The PLANET POE-400 is a 4-Port IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet injector hub complied with IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3u
and IEEE 802.3af standards. Equipped with 4 10/100Base-TX Fast Ethernet ports, the POE-400 supports full 48VDC
power for any remote IEEE 802.3af powered device (PD) like Wireless LAN Access Point, IP phone, and LAN Camera.
Supporting power supply of 70 watts, POE-400 provides sufficient power to the 4 remote devices.
There are 8 RJ-45 STP ports on POE-400. Half of the ports on right panel function as "Data" and the other half on left
panel function as "Data and Power". Each of the "Data and Power" port as an injector which inserts DC Voltage into
the CAT 5 cable allowing the cable between the Injector and Splitter to transfer data and power simultaneously.

2. HARDWARE INSTALLATION
This product provides two different running speeds – 10Mbps, 100Mbps, in the same device and automatically distin-
guishes the speed of incoming connection.
This section describes the hardware features of POE-400. Before connecting any network device to the POE-400, read
this chapter carefully.
2.1. Before Installation
Before your installation, it is recommended to check your network environment. If there is any IEEE 802.3af devices need
to power on, the POE-400 can provide you a way to supply power for this Ethernet device conveniently and easily. The
POE-400 equips with an AC-DC adapter with DC 48V input and injects this DC power into the pin of the twisted pair cable
(pair 4, 5 and pair 7, 8).
If there is very difficult to find a power socket for AC-DC Adapter of your non-IEEE 802.3af networked device, the POE-400
and POE-152S can provide you a way to supply DC power for this Ethernet device conveniently and easily.
The 10Mbps or 100Mbps speed, duplex mode from Data port of POE-400 depends on which Ethernet device attached.

2.2 POE-400 and POE-152S, the IEEE 802.3af Injector / Splitter and equipment installation
For the places hard to find the power inlet, the POE-400 provide the easiest way to power your Ethernet devices such as
PLANET IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet Splitter( POE-152S) with Internet Camera (ICA-210 ) or Wireless Access
Point (WAP-4060PE) installed in the small office.
To control the power system of your networking devices, the POE-400 can directly co-work with PLANET ICA-100PE and
POE IP Phone VIP-153PT to build VoIP telephony network in the office. Besides, the POE-400 can be directly deployed to
connect the third party IEEE 802.3af devices like Cisco AP and POE switches installed 100 meters away.
Figure 1: Connection architecture over POE-400
ꢁNotice:
1. According to IEEE 802.3af standard, the POE-400 will not inject power to the cable if not connecting to IEEE 802.3af
devices.
2. Due to the capability of IEEE 802.3af standard, the POE-400 can directly connect with any IEEE 802.3af end-nodes.

3. TROUBLESHOOTING
This chapter contains information to help you solve problems. If the Switch is not functioning properly, make sure the
Ethernet Switch was set up according to instructions in this manual.
How to let my non IEEE 802.3af network devices can work with POE-400?
Solution:
You can use PLANET Power over Ethernet Splitter, such as PLANET POE-152S to work as a power
transformer between POE-400 and non IEEE 802.3af devices. Two types of POE-152S are available
for different voltage, 5V DC and 12V DC.
The PoE LED is not lit
Solution:
Check the cable connection between POE-400 and IEEE 802.3af device.
Why I connect my PoE device to POE-400 and it cannot power on?
Solution:
1. Please check the cable type of the connection from POE-400 to the other end. The cable should
be an 8-wire UTP, Category 5/5e, EIA568 cable within 100 meters. A cable with only 4-wire, short
loop or over 100 meters, all will affect the power supply.
2. Please check and assure the device that fully complied with IEEE 802.3af standard.
