Cisco Confidential 6 PoE/PoE+ is intended for DTE powering – to provide a 10Base-T, 100Base-T or 1000Base-T device with a single interface to both data it requires and power to process this data. PoE : IEEE 802.3af – Delivery of upto 15W of power over ALT A pairs of RJ45 PoE+ : IEEE 802.3at –Delivery of upto 30W of power over ALT A pairs of RJ45

Overlaying Power with Data Figure 1 below shows the normal Data transmission between two PHY silicon. Figure 2 depicts how power is inserted along with data on ALT-A or ALT-B pairs to provide DTE powering. A power source introduces a port voltage “V” through the center tap of the Ethernet transformer. The end device in need of power, connects its load to the center tap of the Ethernet transformer to draw power from the source voltage “V”. This power does not affect the data since it is fed as a common-mode voltage.

Cisco Confidential 8 Power is coupled from PSE to PD through a center tap transformer configuration Power is extracted on the PD side from center tap again and fed to a diode bridge The diode bridge is to ensure PD is polarity insensitive (see next slide). The diode bridge in turn feeds a PD chip which takes care of implementing the PD features. This configuration can provide upto 30W To double the power, the unused ALT B pairs (shown in the picture) are put to use as well. Simply by duplicating the circuitry shown on unused pairs upto 60W can be drawn. Source: Fred Schindler, PoE Nerd lunch presentation PD chip 50-57V

(PoE - Type I) Power-on—provide the requested power (upto 12.95W is available at the PD). Data Link Layer Classification (LLDP) —refine the required power(more than 15.4W request and upto 30W – Poe+ - Type II). Source: Fred Schindler, PoE Nerd lunch presentation

© 2010 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 19 LLDP – Link Layer Discovery Protocol LLDP is a layer 2 protocol in Networking. It is vendor-neutral and used for advertising identity, capabilities and neighbours on a LAN LLDP uses Type, Length and Value fields(TLV) to convey the information

© 2010 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 20 IEEE 802.3at already defines LLDP for power negotiation greater than 15.4W and upto 30W. UPOE uses the same negotiation method to provide upto 60W contingent on a successful 4-pair handshake. IEEE802.3at LLDP format is shown below. “4-wire Power Via MDI” - is the new subtype for Cisco specific OUI TLV. It is present in all modes of operation and is used to exchange 4-pair capabilities before enabling 4pair and providing upto 60W.

© 2010 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 24 To support already deployed devices which don’t have LLDP capabilities Physical layer signature is a must on both ALT-A and ALT-B pairs. This is used in lieu of LLDP to detect UPOE end device. Least Preferred – Doesn’t support the advantages that come with LLDP. For instance, In LLDP if a UPOE port drops down in power consumption this extra power can now be returned to general pool for use by other ports. Forced 4-pair implementation doesn’t support this – power allocation to a forced 4-pair port is static at 60W By Default UPOE switch uses LLDP – to turn on forced 4-pair a CLI command is provided => “power inline four-pair forced”

Cisco Confidential 28 For Utilizing UPOE the end device should have the following  A IEEE802.3at compliant Powered Device (PD) circuit (ALT-A and ALT-B pairs could combine before and feed into a single PD chip if LLDP capabilities are present; However if forced UPOE is needed then a compliant PD chip would be needed on both ALT-A and ALT-B pairs)  LLDP implementation of Cisco 4-pair power via MDI TLV  LLDP TLV for power negotiation NOTE: In absence of LLDP forced 4-pair can be utilized but this method is not the preferred method of implemention. If LLDP implementation is possible the end device is advised to take that route.
