Catalyst Family Inline-Power Patch Panel Installation and Verification Note

Catalyst Family Inline-Power Patch Panel Installation and Verification Note

Part Number: WS-PWR-PANEL

This document describes the Catalyst family inline-power patch panel and includes rack-mounting and cabling procedures.

The inline-power patch panel will work with any Cisco 10/100 Mbps switching product capable of supporting IP telephones.

Contents

This document consists of these sections:

Overview

Typically, LAN-based IP telephones use external power converters located at or near the desktop. The inline-power patch panel eliminates the need for external power sources; it is a standalone chassis that can be co-located with the Catalyst switch to provide -48 VDC power directly to the telephone through existing Catalyst family 10/100BaseTX switching modules. When used with an uninterruptible power supply (UPS), the inline-power patch panel can provide power to the telephone even in a power failure.

The inline-power patch panel has 48 RJ-45 input ports and 48 RJ-45 output ports (see Figure 1). There are two RJ-45 connectors per port for a total of 48 ports. Each input connector is internally connected to a corresponding output connector (input connector 1 is connected to output connector 1, and so on).

The RJ-45 ports serve as the physical network interfaces to the inline-power patch panel. The lower bank of ports provide 10/100-Mbps connection to the switch through RJ-45 connector pins 1, 2, 3, and 6. The top bank of ports provide -48 VDC power to the IP telephones through RJ-45 connector pins 4, 5, 7, and 8, in addition to transparently passing 10/100 Mbps data traffic on pins 1, 2, 3, and 6.

Rack-Mounting Procedure

Use this procedure to install the inline-power patch panel in a rack.


Caution During this procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the unit.


Step 1 Prepare for installation as follows:


Note Figure 2 illustrates how to attach the front of the inline-power patch panel to the rack. You can also attach the rear of the inline-power patch panel to the rack, depending on the configuration of your rack.

Step 2 Note that the L brackets connect the chassis to the rack. You can mount the L brackets to the front or rear mounting holes of the chassis, depending on which end is in the front of the rack.


Note Some equipment racks provide a power strip along the length of one of the rear posts. If the rack has this feature, consider the position of the strip when planning fastener points. Before installing the L brackets on the chassis, determine whether to install the chassis from the front or the rear of the rack.

Attach the left and right L brackets using the four M4 Phillips pan-head screws provided in the rack-mount kit (see Figure 2).
