FAQs#

What is the input voltage range of the lighting controller?#

48V-57VDC, see D1.1 - Input Power Range.


What is the maximum output power of each port?#

Each physical port on the X-PoE LCNS is capable of outputting 2.3A total. To calculate the maximum output power, 2.3A should be multiplied by the input voltage supplied to the switch. See D1.2 - Output Power Range.

The max output in Amps is: 2.3

Use the following table to correlate input voltage to max output power

Input Voltage Max Output Current Max Output Per Channel Max Output Per Port
48V 2.3A 54W 108W
57V 2.3A 65W 129W

Can X-PoE Switches support traditional IEEE Poe Loads?#

Of course it can. Thats the whole point 🚀 When a user connects a load to the switch, the switch will begin by checking to see if the connected device is a traditional PoE Load. If it is, it will enable power according to the classifaction of that load.

If the connected load turns out to be an X-PoE load, the switch will then allocate power according to the X-PoE classification.

If an output on the switch has already been configured to specific settings and has been "Locked" (link to lock info), then the switch will jump straight to those settings.

  Note right of Switch: An output can be configured to specific settings to skip this discovery!
