## PoE tab field descriptions

The following table describes the fields on the PoE tab.

Name | Description
--- | ---
AdminEnable | Lets you enable or disable PoE on this port. By default, PoE is enabled.
PowerPairs | Displays the status of the RJ-45 pin pairs that the switch uses to send power to the prots on the switch.
DetectionStatus | Displays the operational status of the power-device detecting mode on the specified port: disabled: detecting function disabled. searching: detecting function is enabled and the system is searching for a valid powered device on this port. deliveringPower: detection found a valid powered device and the port is delivering power. fault: power-specific fault detected on port test: detecting device in test mode. otherFault Important Avaya recommends against using the test operational status.
PowerClassifications | Classification is a way to tag different terminals on the Power over LAN network according to their power consumption. Devices such as IP telephones, WLAN access points, and others can be classified according to their power requirements.
PowerPriority | Lets you set the power priority for the specified port to: critical high low
PowerLimit(watts) | Specifies the maximum power that the switch can supply to a port. RANGE: 3 to 32 Watts DEFAULT: 16 Watts
Voltage (volts) | Indicates the voltage measured in Volts.
Current(amps) | Indicates the current measured in amps.
Power(watts) | Indicates the power measured in watts.
