G48P I/O Module
The G48P I/O module (Figure 11) has 48 autosensing 10/100/1000BASE-T ports that use standard RJ-45
connectors. In addition to the Ethernet connection, these ports can deliver Power over Ethernet (PoE) to
an attached device using the same cable. The G48P I/O module supports the IEEE 802.3af PoE
specification.
Figure 11: G48P I/O Module
When powered devices (PDs) are connected to a port, the PDs are discovered and classified as
802.3af-compliant or as legacy devices. ExtremeXOS implements the following functions:
Enables the port for discovery, classification, and power delivery
Enforces port power limits by denying power to a device exceeding the configured limit
Enforces class limits by denying power to a device exceeding the class limit
Reports and tracks port power faults
The default configuration of the G48P I/O module is as follows. All ports:
Are added to the default VLAN as untagged
Inherit the properties of the default VLAN (for example, protocol type and VLANid)
Operate in autonegotiation mode
The G48P I/O module has the following LEDs:
Module status
Module diagnostics
Port status
Power status
For information about the LEDs and their activity on the G48P I/O module, see “I/O Module LEDs” on
page 38.
