I am using the rb2011 series routers and CRS125-24G-1S-RM switches. Can these be powered at the same time by the POE in and the DC power jack? Sort of as redundant power?
I'm not going to try it and fry one if it went wrong so I'll ask.
As you can see, the document states that ONLY ONE power input can be used at a time, so the use of both DC and POE does not seem possible.Powering
The device accepts powering from either of the two power jacks, or from the LAN1 Ethernet port:
•
direct-‐input power jacks J801/J803(5.5mm outside and 2mm inside diameter, female, pin positive plug) accept 8-‐30V DC (overvoltage protection starts at 30V).
•LAN1 Ethernet port J504 accepts 8-‐30V DC input (at the board;higher voltage needed to compensate for power loss on long cables) from non-‐standard (passive) Power over Ethernet injectors. The board does not work with IEEE802.3af compliant 48V power injectors.
CAUTION: all three power inputs are always active, but only one of them may be used at time to avoid damage of equipment.
