AT-8500 Series Layer 2+ Fast Ethernet Switches Installation Guide

AT-8524POE The AT-8524POE switch has 24 10/100Base-TX ports with Power over
Ethernet (PoE) capability. (For a description of this feature, refer to “Power
Over Ethernet” on page 27.) The ports feature RJ-45 connectors and have
a maximum operating distance of 100 meters (328 feet) using twisted pair
cable. The ports, when not using PoE, can use Category 3 or better 100
ohm twisted pair cable for 10Base-T operation and Category 5 or 5E 100
ohm twisted pair cable for 100Base-TX operation. For ports using PoE,
Category 5 or 5E 100 ohm twisted pair cable is required for both 10 and
100 Mbps operation.
The switch also features two expansion slots that are compatible with
100Base and 1000Base fiber optic and twisted pair port expansion
modules and the AT-STACKM stacking module.
