10/100BASE-T Downlink Ports

You can set the 10/100BASE-T downlink ports to operate at 10 or 100 Mb/s over IP standard M12 cabling. The ports can operate in full-duplex, half-duplex, autonegotiate (default), or never half-duplex mode.

A Never Half Duplex option for a port functions as the name implies, the link is never established at half duplex; it is either full-duplex or no link. Never Half Duplex avoids the unpredictable response times that in a CSMA/CD network can cause safety features to trip or interruptions that require restarting the process flow.

Power-over-Ethernet

The 10/100BASE-T ports 1 to 4 on a 8 port switch and 10/100BASE-T ports 1 to 8 on a 16 port switch support PoE (IEEE802.3af) by default. Ports 1 to 4 on a 8 port switch or 1 to 8 on a 16 port switch can be configured to operate as PoE+ (IEEE802.3at) ports. The switch supports a total of 120W power on the PoE ports with any combination of PoE or PoE+ feature on ports 1 to 8. IEEE standards require that the PSE (switch) supports a maximum of 15400 mW per port for PoE ports and 30000 mW per port for PoE+ ports. To meet the maximum load requirement on the switch when operating with 8 PoE or 4 PoE+ ports, a power source rated at 54V, 160W should be used. The source power rating will be lower for configurations requiring lesser than 4 PoE+ or 8 PoE ports.

You can use the Device Manager or the sh power inline consumption default wattage command to change the configured power consumption values.

When the power requirement of a connected device is known and less than the maximum value for the class, the wattage can be set lower than the default IEEE classification. This setting overrides both the IEEE classification and power negotiation. For example, an IP phone that requires only 5 W but is in Class 0, which allows a maximum of 15.4 W. Configuring an override that reduces power on this port makes more power available to other ports. See the Cisco IE 2000 Switch Command Reference for more information. Class 0–3 is PoE. Class 4 is PoE+:

10/100/1000BASE-T Uplink Ports

The IEEE 802.3u 10/100/1000BASE-T uplink ports provide 10, 100 or 1000 Mb/s connectivity over IP standard M12 X Coded shielded cabling. The ports can operate in full-duplex, half-duplex, autonegotiate (default), or never half-duplex mode. The default setting is autonegotiate.

Power Connector

You connect the DC power to the switch through the front panel connector. The power connector labeling is on the panel. Torque power connection to 10in/lbs.

The switch can operate with a single power source or with dual power sources. When both power sources are operational, the switch draws power from the DC source with the higher voltage. If one of the two power sources fail, the other continues to power the switch.

Additional information regarding the power levels is available in the Power-over-Ethernet section of this chapter.

Alarm Connector

You connect the alarm signals to the switch through the alarm connector. The switch supports one alarm output relay.

The alarm output circuit is a relay with a normally open and a normally closed contact. The switch is configured to detect faults that are used to energize the relay coil and change the state on both of the relay contacts: normally open contacts close, and normally closed contacts open. The alarm output relay can be used to control an external alarm device, such as a bell or a light.

LEDs

You can use the LEDs to monitor overall system status and power supply input and output status as well as port and alarm status.

Express Setup LED

The Express Setup LED displays the status of the initial setup for the initial configuration.

 

Table 1-2 Setup LED

Color

Status

Off (dark)

Configured as a managed switch.

Solid green

Operating normally running the initial setup configuration.

Blinking green

Performing the initial setup, in recovery, or the initial setup is incomplete.

Solid red

Failed to start initial setup or recovery because there is no available port to link the switch to the management station. Disconnect a device from a switch port, and then press the Express Setup button.

PoE Status LED

The PoE LED indicates the status of the PoE ports.

 

Table 1-3 PoE Status LED Colors and Meanings
Color
Status

Off

PoE is off. If the powered device is receiving power from a non-PoE power source, the port LED is off even if the powered device is connected to a PoE switch port.

Green

PoE is on. The port LED is green only when the PoE port is providing power.

Alternating green and amber

PoE power is denied to the port because providing power to the attached PoE device exceeds the power capacity of the switch.

Flashing amber

PoE is off due to a fault.

Caution Noncompliant cabling or powered devices can cause a PoE port fault. Use only standard-compliant cabling to connect Cisco prestandard IP phones, wireless access points, or other IEEE 802.3af-compliant devices. You must replace any cable or device that causes a PoE fault.

Amber

PoE for the port is enabled, but failures are present.

Port Status LEDs

Each 10/100BASE-T downlink port (identified by numbers 1-24, depending on the model) and 10/100/1000BASE-T uplink port (identified as GE-1 and GE-2) has a port status LED.

 

Table 1-4 Port Status LEDs

Color

Status

Off

No link.

Solid green

Link present. No activity.

Blinking green

Port is actively sending or receiving data.

Alternating green-amber

Link fault. Errors that affect connectivity and throughput, such as excessive collisions, CRC errors, and alignment and jabber errors, are monitored.

Solid amber

Port is not forwarding. The port was disabled by management, an address violation, or STP.

  • After a port is reconfigured, the port LED can remain amber for up to 30 seconds while STP checks the switch for loops.

System LED

The System LED shows whether the device is receiving power and is functioning properly.

 

Table 1-5 System LED

Color

Status

Off

Switch is not powered on.

Blinking green

Boot fast (power-on self test) is in progress.

Green

Switch is operating normally.

Red

Switch is not functioning properly.

Alarm LEDs

Table 1-6 list the alarm LED colors and their meanings.

Table 1-6 Alarm Out Status LEDs

Color

System Status

Off

Alarm out is not configured or the Switch is off.

Green

Alarm out is configured, no alarms detected.

Blinking red

Major alarm detected.

Red

Minor alarm detected.

Power Status LEDs

The switch can operate with one or two DC power sources marked DC_A and DC_B. Each DC input has an associated LED that shows the status of the corresponding DC input. If power is present on the circuit, the LED is green. If power is not present, the LED color depends on the alarm configuration. If alarms are configured, the LED is red when power is not present; otherwise, the LED is off.

If the switch has dual power sources, the switch draws power from the power source with the higher voltage. If one of the DC sources fails, the alternate DC source powers the switch, and the corresponding power status LED is green. The power status for the failed DC source is either off or red, depending on the alarm configuration.

 

Table 1-7 Power Status LEDs

Color

System Status

Green

Power is present on the associated circuit, system is operating normally.

Off

Power is not present on the circuit or the system is not powered up.

Red

An alarm has been configured to indicate that power is not present on the associated circuit or the power input dropped below the lowest valid level.

For information about the power LED colors and behaviors during the boot fast sequence, see the “LEDs” section.

Rear Panel

The rear panels of the switch and the IP67 power supply have 4 mounting ears for installation on wall.

IP67 Power Supply

The switch is offered with an optional IP67 DC-DC power supply (PWR-IE160W-67-DC=). The IP67 DC-DC power supply can take 18 to 60Vdc input and provide a 54V, 160W DC output sufficient to run the IP67 ie2000 switch with up to 8 PoE ports (or 4 PoE+) ports. There are also non-IP67 power supplies compatible with the switch.

Note The power supply (PWR-IE160W-67-DC=) is sold separately.

Figure 1-8 displays the IP67 Power Supply.
