PCIe-PoE572bt power supply source and PoE per port on/off setting

PCIe-PoE572bt power supply source switch

• As for the power supply source of PCIe-PoE572bt, we have two ways. One is from the PCIe connector which can offer about 70W for your usage.

• The other is from the wafer pin in the system which can offer about 180W for you to enable PoE++ devices.

• There is a dip switch on the back plane for you to switch two power supply source

• If you want to power the card from PCIe connector, please switch the bottom switch "left"

• If you want to power the card from the system via wafer pin , please switch the bottom switch "right" and do not forget to connect with the power cable. (up to 180W for network adapter)

PoE per port on/off setting

• We can use i2c tool to set per port on/off of PoE feature first and we will use WDT-DIO to set later.

# install i2c-tools 
sudo apt-get install i2c-tools

• use i2ctransfer to set per port on/off

# check the i2c device position first and the register of the network adapter should locate at 0x60
# PSE port1 on
sudo i2ctransfer -f -y 1 w2@0x60 0x10 0x05 
# PSE port2 on
sudo i2ctransfer -f -y 1 w2@0x60 0x12 0x05 
# PSE port1 off
sudo i2ctransfer -f -y 1 w2@0x60 0x10 0x00 
# PSE port2 off
sudo i2ctransfer -f -y 1 w2@0x60 0x12 0x00
