Nortel BAYSTACK 460 24 PORT 10/100 MDA SLOT POE SWITCH Specification Guide
Key features and benefits
High density power over Ethernet switch—
Up to eight switches can be stacked to achieve
up to 224 10/100 ports (using a 4-port 10/100 Mbps MDA per switch). Ideal for mid-to-
large enterprises needing an advanced stackable switch with Power over Ethernet capabilities.
large enterprises needing an advanced stackable switch with Power over Ethernet capabilities.
IEEE 802.3af compliant—
Provides Power over Ethernet to any IEEE 802.3af compliant
devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, network cameras, security and lighting
devices, and access control devices. It can supply up to 15.4 Watts power per port, which
meets the IEEE 802.3af standard. Being standards-compliant means flexibility to power
multiple vendors’ devices.
devices, and access control devices. It can supply up to 15.4 Watts power per port, which

multiple vendors’ devices.
Auto Discovery feature—
Automatically recognizes the connection of a device and imme-
diately sends power to it. Ensures fast connectivity without manual intervention.
Convenience of a single cable—
Data and power can be transmitted over one cable
without using a power outlet. No need for a separate cable connecting the device to a
power outlet.
power outlet.
Plug-n-play IP Telephony switching—
Provides simplified Web-based configurations on
data and power properties. The graphical user interfaces make it simple to set up data and
power configurations.

BoSS (BayStack operating system Switching Software)—
allows BayStack 460-24T-PWR,
BayStack Business Policy Switch, BayStack 470-48T, and BayStack 470-24T Switches to
stack together with a single image. Simpler software upgrades achieved with a single image
for different switches in the same stack.
