RE: [802.3af] FW: ETSI standard for Line power for IP terminals




Hi Bob
it is asking me for a user id, if it is not too much trouble it would be great
if you can dowload and email us the documents.
thank's
roger

>>>ES 201 910 V1.1.1 (work item DES/AT0020013 ) for your comment and

>>>
>>>About the Specification:
>>>
>>>The specification is based on the IEEE 802.3af draft 1.1, DTE
>>Power via
>>>the MDI  (also attached) as decided in ETSI. As you will see, IEEE
>>>specifies the power supply characteristics on the LAN side
>>(PSE) as well
>>>as the characteristics for the terminals (PD's) to be able to receive
>>>power from the LAN. This was accepted "as is" in the last
>>ETSI meeting.
>>>
>>>Additional to the above, the ETSI specification addresses a
>>possible power
>>>fail situation on the LAN side, which will leave the IP
>>terminal without
>>>power resulting in basic communication breakdown. (The scope
>>of the IEEE
>>>specification does not cover the reliability or
>>interruptability of the
>>>power supply to the terminal.) To achieve basic emergency
>>communication
>>>with a line powered IP terminal in the event of a power fail,
>>the current
>>>proposal is to specify i) limited (emergency) back up power
>>for the LAN
>>>ii) reduced power consumption for a limited number of "emergency" IP
>>>terminals (to conserve the limited LAN power) and iii) a means of
>>>communicating the switch over from normal to limited power (and visa
>>>versa) to the terminals when the power failure (restoration) occurs.
>>>
>>>Main outstanding areas are:
>>>Definition of messages to convey the different power states
>>of the Line
>>power.
>>>Specification of the backup power when the normal LAN power
>>supply fails.
