Hardware Introduction

This section describes the functionalities of the Industrial PoE Extender’s components.

Front Panel
Figure 2-1 shows the front panel of Industrial PoE Extender.

LED Indicators

PoE Input Port (Port 5)

LNK/ACT

| ****

Green

| Lights to indicate the port is linked up.
Blinks to indicate that the WGS-E304PT is actively sending or receiving data over that port.

PoE-in-Use

| ****

Amber

| Lights to indicate the port is obtaining PoE power from PSE devices.
OFF to indicate the port is not obtaining PoE power from PSE devices.

Per PoE Output Port (Ports 1 ~ 4)

LNK/ACT

| ****

Green

| Lights to indicate the port is linked up.
Blinks to indicate that the WGS-E304PT is actively sending or receiving data over that port.

PoE-in-Use

| ****

Amber

| Lights to indicate the port is providing PoE power.
OFF to indicate the connected device is not a PoE PD

DIP Switch
The front panel of the Industrial PoE Extender provides one DIP switch for Standard, VLAN, and Extend mode selections. The detailed descriptions are shown in the following table

Standard (default)

| This mode makes the WGS-E304PT operate as a general switch and all ports operate at 10/100/1000Mbps auto- negotiation.

VLAN

| This mode makes the WGS-E304PT operate as a VLAN isolation switch and

Port 1 to port 4 will isolate respectively.

Port 1 to port 4 can only communicate with port 5 (uplink port).

Extend

| This mode makes the WGS-E304PT operate as a distance extension switch and port 1 to port 4 can only transmit distance of 250m at speed of 10Mbps.

NOTE
Please reboot the Industrial PoE Extender after adjusting the DIP switch.

Physical Dimensions

W x D x H: 148 x 24.2 x 134 mm

Installation

This section describes the functionalities of the Industrial PoE Extender’s components and guides you to install it on the wall mount, DIN rail and magnet Installation. Please read this chapter completely before continuing
The following pictures show how to install the device. However, the device in the picture is not the WGS-E304PT

Wall-Mount Installation

To install the Industrial PoE Extender on the wall, simply follow the following steps:

• Step 1: Place the Industrial PoE Extender on the wall and mark the four holes with a pencil.
• Step 2: Hammer the anchors provided into the four holes and use the four screws to tightly fix the Industrial PoE Extender onto the wall by screwing them
• Step 3: Or the Industrial PoE Extender, shown in the picture below, can be hung on the wall by screwing the two screws leaving a space of 2mm apart after the anchors are hammered in.

DIN-rail Mounting Installation

The DIN-rail kit is included in the Industrial PoE Extender package. To hang up the Industrial PoE Extender, follow the steps below:

• Step 1: Screw the DIN-rail bracket on the Industrial PoE Extender
• Step 2: Lightly press the bottom of DIN-rail bracket into the track.
• Step 3: Check whether the DIN-rail bracket is tightly on the track.

Magnet Installation

To install the Industrial PoE Extender on a magnetic surface, simply follow the following diagram

Connecting WGS-E304PT to PSE

The Industrial PoE Extender has five RJ45 ports of which one is the PoE++ In port (Port 5) connected to the PSE and the other four are PoE+ Out ports connected to the PDs.

• Step 1: Connect a standard Cat5e/6 UTP cable from a remote PSE, such as 802.3bt PoE++ switch, to the “PoE In” port of the Industrial PoE Extender.
• Step 2: The PSE delivers both Ethernet Data and PoE power over UTP cable to the Industrial PoE Extender and the “PoE IN” LED will be lit steadily.

NOTE

• When the LED turns steady amber, it means the Industrial PoE Extender is being powered successfully with PoE.
• If the LED is not lit, please check whether the remote PSE or the cable is connected to a PC or a network device, or the use of cable is correct or not. If not, check whether the power injection going to a PD is correct or not.
• Never connect any non-standard PoE PSE to the Industrial PoE Extender; it will damage the device permanently.
• Refer to Chapter 2.2 for more information about LED function.

Connecting WGS-E304PT to PD

• Step 1: Connect the additional Cat5e/6 cable from the PoE+ Out of the Industrial PoE Extender to a remote PD.
• Step 2: The PoE+ Out port is also the power injector, which transmits DC voltage to the Cat5e/6 cable and transfers data and power simultaneously between the PSE and PD.
• Step 3: Once the Industrial PoE Extender detects the existence of an IEEE 802.3at/af device, the PoE-in-Use LED indicator will be lit steadily, showing it is providing power.

NOTE

• If the connected device is not fully complying with IEEE 802.3af/at standard or in-line power device, the PoE-in-Use LED indicator of the Industrial PoE Extender will not be lit steadily.
• According to IEEE 802.3af/at standard, the Industrial PoE Extender will not inject power to the cable if not connecting to a standard IEEE 802.3af/at device.
• DO NOT connect any PSE to ports 1 to 4 of the Industrial PoE Extender; it may damage the device permanently

Power over Ethernet Budget

The following table lists how many PoE devices can be powered by the Industrial PoE Extender under 1m in distance:

95W 802.3bt PoE++

Type 4 PSE

|

65 watts max.

| Class 4 PD@25 watts| 2 units
Class 3 PD@12.9 watts| 4 units
Class 2 PD@7 watts| 4 units

36W 802.3at PoE+ PSE|

36 watts max.

| Class 3 PD@12.9 watts| 2 units
Class 2 PD@7 watts| 4 units

Remarks:

1. The PoE output budget means the aggregated power output of the 4 PSE ports.
2. The aggregated power consumption will be below 70 watts if with PoE+ PSE.
3. Please check the power input LED for optimal power output.
