PoE Mode
POE-171A-60/POE-171A-95/POE-176-95:
Standard: To provide power to the PD devices that
follow the IEEE 802.3af/at/bt standard.
Legacy: To provide power to the PD devices that
do not fully follow the IEEE 802.3af/at/bt standard.
Besides, the Legacy mode supports PoH and Ultra PoE.
Force: If the output power of injector is less than 1
watt when it works in Legacy mode; after 20 seconds,
the Force mode will be enabled.
When the Force mode is enabled, it will provide PD
with max. 60~95 watts.
If the output power of injector is less than 1 watt when

1. As the IEEE 802.3bt device provides high power, please use
high-quality network cable and RJ45 connector.
2. The maximum PoE output power depends on the cable length,
the quality of cable, and DC input voltage.
3. Please power on the device after changing the DIP switch
mode.

PoE Mode:
PoE Mode Description
Standard/
802.3bt Fully conforms to the IEEE 802.3af/at/bt standard.
Legacy
The legacy detection is to identify the valid current signature of
the PDs that do not fully follow the IEEE 802.3af/at/bt standard.
This protects against damage to the PDs as the right PoE mode
is applied.
The PoE++ Injector also supports Force Power Mode in the
Legacy mode. If the output power of the PoE++ Injector in
the Legacy Mode is less than 1 watt for 20 seconds, the Force
Mode will be enabled for 2 seconds. If the loading is still less
than 1 watt, the Legacy Mode will be enabled again.
