Power over Ethernet on Cisco Catalyst 4500E
The Cisco Catalyst 4500E Series offers line cards, power supplies, and accessories required to deploy and operate
standards-based Power over Ethernet/Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE/PoEP). PoE provides power over 100m of
standard Category 3/5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cables when an IEEE 802.3af/at-compliant or Cisco
prestandard powered device is attached to the PoE/PoEP line-card port. Instead of requiring wall power, attached
devices such as IP phones, wireless base stations, video cameras, and other IEEE-compliant appliances can use
power provided from the Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series PoE/PoEP line cards. This capability gives network
administrators centralized control over power and eliminates the need to install outlets in ceilings and other out-of-
the-way places where a powered device can be installed.
Although all references to “PoE/PoEP,” “inline power,” and “voice” power supplies and line cards are synonymous,
there are currently only three versions: Cisco prestandard, IEEE 802.3af compliant, and IEEE 802.3at compliant.
Every Cisco Catalyst 4500 Series chassis and PoE power supply supports the IEEE 802.3af/at standard and the
Cisco prestandard power implementation, helping ensure backward compatibility with existing devices powered by
Cisco. All IEEE 802.3af/at-compliant line cards can distinguish an IEEE or Cisco prestandard powered device from
an unpowered network interface card (NIC), helping ensure power is applied only when an appropriate device is
connected.
Cisco Catalyst 4500E Series and Classic Gigabit Ethernet Copper Line Cards
The Cisco Catalyst 4500E Series 48-port Gigabit Ethernet line cards provide high-performance 10/100/1000
switching. There are two types of E-Series line cards based on the per-slot bandwidth: 47xx line cards that drive 48
Gbps per slot and 46xx line cards that drive 24 Gbps per slot. The Cisco Catalyst 4500 48-port 10/100/1000 E-Series
47xx line card provides standard IEEE 802.3at PoEP support on all 48 ports simultaneously. This line card also
supports standard IEEE 802.1AE encryption and Cisco TrustSec
™
in hardware. The Cisco Catalyst 4500 48-port
10/100/1000 E-Series 46xx line cards are available in three versions:
●
Data only (no PoE)
●
Standard IEEE 802.3af PoE
●
Standard IEEE 802.3at PoEP
Similarly, classic Gigabit Ethernet copper line cards are also available in three versions:
●
Data only (no PoE)
●
Standard IEEE 802.3af PoE
