Understanding Interface Types
After device detection, the switch determines the device power requirements based on its type:
•
A Cisco pre-standard powered device does not provide its power requirement when the switch
detects it, so the switch allocates 15.4 W as the initial allocation for power budgeting.
detects it, so the switch allocates 15.4 W as the initial allocation for power budgeting.
The initial power allocation is the maximum amount of power that a powered device requires. The
switch initially allocates this amount of power when it detects and powers the powered device. As
the switch receives CDP messages from the powered device and as the powered device negotiates
power levels with the switch through CDP power-negotiation messages, the initial power allocation
might be adjusted.

The switch classifies the detected IEEE device within a power consumption class. Based on the
available power in the power budget, the switch determines if a port can be powered.

these levels.
The switch monitors and tracks requests for power and grants power only when it is available. The
switch tracks its power budget (the amount of power available on the switch for PoE). The switch
performs power-accounting calculations when a port is granted or denied power to keep the power
budget up to date.

performs power-accounting calculations when a port is granted or denied power to keep the power
budget up to date.
After power is applied to the port, the switch uses CDP to determine the actual power consumption
requirement of the connected Cisco powered devices, and the switch adjusts the power budget
accordingly. This does not apply to third-party PoE devices. The switch processes a request and either
grants or denies power. If the request is granted, the switch updates the power budget. If the request is
denied, the switch ensures that power to the port is turned off, generates a syslog message, and updates
the LEDs. Powered devices can also negotiate with the switch for more power.

or short-circuit condition, it turns off power to the port, generates a syslog message, and updates the

Power Management Modes
The switch supports these PoE modes:
•
auto—The switch automatically detects if the connected device requires power. If the switch
discovers a powered device connected to the port and if the switch has enough power, it grants
power, updates the power budget, turns on power to the port on a first-come, first-served basis, and
updates the LEDs. For LED information, see the hardware installation guide.

If the switch has enough power for all the powered devices, they all come up. If enough power is
available for all powered devices connected to the switch, power is turned on to all devices. If there
is not enough available PoE, or if a device is disconnected and reconnected while other devices are
waiting for power, it cannot be determined which devices are granted or are denied power.
