Frequently Asked Questions
Can PoE ports connect to non-PoE devices?
Yes, PoE ports can connect to non-PoE devices for data transmission only.
What devices are recommended to connect to non-PoE ports?
Non-PoE ports are recommended for connecting to uplink devices like gateways.
How are network congestion issues handled?
By default, ports 1-2 of MS106LP/MS106P have higher priority than other ports in transmitting data during network congestion. It is recommended to connect key network devices like network cameras and APs to ports 1-2 for better performance.
Why is the Power LED not lit?
The Power LED should be lit when the power system is working normally. If the Power LED is not lit, please check as follows. Make sure the AC power cord/power adapter is connected the switch with power source properly. Make sure the voltage of the power supply meets the requirements of the input voltage of the switch. Make sure the power source is on.
Why is the Link/Act LED not lit when a device is connected to the corresponding port?
It is recommended that you check the following items: Make sure that the cable connectors are firmly plugged into the switch and the device. Make sure the connected device is turned on and working well. The cable must be less than 100 meters long (328 feet). If Extend Mode is enabled, it should be less than 250 meters (820 feet).
Why are PoE ports not supplying power for PoE devices?
When the total power consumption of connected PoE devices exceeds the maximum,the PoE port with a smaller port number has a higher priority. The system will cut off power to the ports with larger port numbers to ensure supplying to other ports. Taking MS110GMP as an example, if port 1, 2, 3 and are consuming 25 W respectively,and an additional PoE device with 15 W is inserted to port 4, the system will cut off the power of port 5 to compensate for the overload.
What should I notice before using the PoE Auto Recovery feature?
Before upgrading a connected PoE powered device (PD), disable PoE Auto Recovery to avoid the PD’s damage. When a PD does not send data packets to the switch for a long period in certain scenarios (e.g. an IPC in sleep mode), disable PoE Auto Recovery to avoid the PD repeatedly rebooting.
