Figure 2-24. Segment network configuration with PoE switches
As shown in the illustration above, the IP telephones have been inserted in
between the Switch 2610-48-PWR and the PCs, and wireless access points
(WAPs) have been connected to another Switch 2610-48-PWR. Both the
telephones and WAPs will receive PoE power from each of the switches. Only
devices directly connected to the PWR switches can receive PoE power.
Devices connected to a non-PWR segment switch cannot receive PoE power.
