Frequently Asked Questions - IPOE-171-95W Planet

What is the maximum PoE power output of the IPOE-171-95W?

The maximum PoE power output depends on the DC input voltage and cable length. With DC 24~48V input, it can deliver up to 89.5W at 1m cable. With DC 12V input, it delivers up to 60W at 1m cable. For longer cables, the power decreases (e.g., 75W at 100m with 24~48V input).

What PoE standards does the IPOE-171-95W support?

It supports IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 PSE (up to 95W via 4-pair) and is backward compatible with IEEE 802.3at/af devices. It also supports Legacy mode for non-standard PDs and Force mode for ultra-low power detection.

How do I install the IPOE-171-95W?

The device can be mounted using a DIN-rail kit or wall-mount ear. Connect DC power to the terminal block (12~54V, 6A max.), then connect an Ethernet cable from a switch/PC to the 'Data In' port and another cable from 'Data+Power Out' to the PD device. The PoE-in-Use LED will light when power is being supplied.

What are the LED indicators and their meanings?

P1 and P2 (Green) indicate power input presence; Alarm (Red) lights if either power fails; PoE-in-Use (Amber) lights when PoE is active; PoE Usage LEDs (Amber) show power consumption level: 30W, 60W, 90W+ with off/blink/on patterns.

Can I use the IPOE-171-95W with a 12V DC input?

Yes, the input voltage range is 12~54V DC. However, with 12V input, the maximum PoE output is limited to 60W at 1m cable. For full 95W output, you need a 48~54V DC input.

What is the difference between Standard, Legacy, and Force PoE modes?

Standard mode works with IEEE 802.3at/bt compliant devices. Legacy mode supports Ultra PoE (non-standard PDs). Force mode is automatically enabled when output power is below 1W after 20 seconds in Legacy mode, forcing power delivery. Changes require power cycling.

How do I wire the fault alarm contact?

Use the middle two pins of the terminal block (marked Alarm). The relay is normally open; it closes upon power failure. Wire gauge should be 12-24 AWG, and the circuit accepts up to 24V DC, 1A max.

What is the operating temperature range?

The IPOE-171-95W operates between -40°C and 75°C, making it suitable for industrial environments. Storage temperature is -40°C to 85°C.

Does the injector require grounding?

Yes, the device must be properly grounded to protect against lightning damage. Refer to the grounding section in the manual for proper installation.

How many devices can be powered by one injector?

The IPOE-171-95W has a single PoE output port and can power only one PD device at a time.

PoE Mode of IPOE-171 series:

PoE Mode	Description
Standard (Default)	The standard mode is chosen to provide power to the PD devices that follow the IEEE 802.3at/bt standard.
Legacy	The legacy mode supports Ultra PoE. It is chosen to provide power to the PD devices that do not fully follow the IEEE 802.3at/bt standard.
Force	WarningIf the output power of injector is less than 1 watt when in the Legacy mode, after 20 seconds, the Force mode will be enabled. When the Force mode is enabled, it will provide PD with a maximum of 60 watts. If the output power of injector is less than 1 watt when in the Force mode, after 2 seconds, the Legacy mode will be enabled.

Note

After changing the PoE mode, please power off and then on the PoE injector to make the change effective.

3.2 Industrial PoE++ Injector Upper Panel

The upper panel of the IPOE-171 series has one terminal block connector where there are two DC power inputs.

Figure 3: IPOE-171-60W upper panel.

Figure 4: IPOE-171-95W upper panel.

3.3 Wiring the Power Inputs

The 6-contact terminal block connector on the top panel of the IPOE-171 series is used for two DC redundant power inputs. Please follow the steps below to insert the power wire.

Step 1: Insert Positive/Negative DC power wires into Contacts 1 and 2 for POWER 1, or 5 and 6 for POWER 2.

Figure 5: Power input pins.

Step 2: Tighten the wire-clamp screws for preventing the wires from loosening.

Figure 6: PWR1 & PWR2 Pins of Terminal Block.

Note

1. The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the range between 12 24 AWG.

2. As the DC input connector of the IPOE-171 series is polarity protected, connecting Positive/Negative DC power wires to the wrong pins will not damage the unit.

3.4 Wiring the Fault Alarm Contact

The fault alarm contacts are in the middle of the terminal block connector as the picture shows below. After inserting the wires, the IPOE-171 series will detect the fault status of the power failure and then form an open circuit. The following illustration shows an application example for wiring the fault alarm contacts.

Figure 7: Fault Pin of Terminal Block.

Note

1. The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the range between 12 \~ 24 AWG.
2. Alarm relay circuit accepts up to 24V, max. 1A currents.

4. Mounting Installation

This section describes how to install the industrial device and make connections to it. Please read the following sections and perform the procedures in the order being presented.

Note

In the installation steps below, this manual uses PLANET Industrial Switch as an example. The steps for PLANET Industrial Slim-type Switch, Industrial Media/Serial Converter and Industrial PoE devices are similar.

4.1 DIN-rail Mounting Installation

4.2 Wall-mount Plate Mounting

4.3 Side Wall-mount Plate Mounting

* The above pictures are for illustration only.

4.4 Grounding the Device

Users MUST complete grounding wired with the device; otherwise, a sudden lightning could cause fatal damage to the device.

5. Hardware Installation

The following section describes the hardware features of the IPOE-171 series. Before connecting any network device to it, please read this chapter carefully.

5.1 Before Installation

Before your installation, it is recommended to check your network environment. If there is any IEEE 802.3bt device that needs to be powered on and works normally, the IPOE-171 series is the solution that supplies power to this Ethernet device conveniently and easily. If there is difficulty in finding a power socket for the AC-DC conn to your non-IEEE 802.3at/bt networked device, the IPOE-171 series with POE-173S/IPOE-173S can supply DC power to this Ethernet device conveniently and easily.

Note

1. In the installation steps below, this manual uses the IPOE-171-60W as an example. Except the input voltage, the steps for the IPOE-171-95W are similar.
2. Note that the input power range of the IPOE-171-60W is 48 \~ 54V DC and the input power range of IPOE-171-95W is 12 \~ 54V DC.

5.2 IPOE-171-60W/IPOE-171-95W Installation

1. Connect the power ranging from 12V/48V DC to 54V DC to the 6-pin terminal block of the IPOE-171-60W/IPOE-171-95W. The power LED will be steadily on.
2. Connect a standard Ethernet cable from an Ethernet switch or PC workstation to "Ethernet" port of the IPOE-171-60W/IPOE-171-95W.

3. Connect the long cable to the "Ethernet+DC" port.

4. The IPOE-171-60W/IPOE-171-95W can directly connect with any IEEE 802.3at/bt end-nodes, such as PTZ (pan, tilt & zoom) IP cameras, PTZ speed dome cameras, color touch screens, Voice over IP (VoIP) telephones and multi-channel wireless LAN access points which support IEEE 802.3at/bt In-line Power over Ethernet port.

Figure 9: Architecture of connected IEEE 802.3at/bt device

Once the IPOE-171-60W detects the existence of an IEEE 802.3at/bt device, the PoE-in-Use LED indicator will be steadily on to show it is providing power.

Note

1. According to IEEE 802.3at/bt Power over Ethernet, the IPOE-171 Series will not inject power to the cable if not connected to IEEE 802.3at/bt device. But the Force mode is exceptional.

2. Depending on the length of cable, the PoE power which PD receives is different.
