How much Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) wattage is available for each of the 2600-PWR switches?
The 2626-PWR and 2650-PWR have internal power supplies that can supply up to 406 Watts of -50V DC for the PoE devices. For the 2626-PWR, that’s enough to supply 15.4 Watts per port for all 24 10/100 ports, the maximum allowed by the 802.3af specification for Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE). For the 2650-PWR, 406 Watts is enough for 24 ports at the maximum allowable wattage, or all 48 ports at an average of 8.4 Watts (the typical wattage requirement for IP Phones). See “How is PoE power distributed on the 2650-PWR?” For the 2600-8-PWR, there is 126 Watts, enough for all 8 PoE-ready ports to supply the full 15.4 Watts per port.
