| Pin Number | Signal | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | TXP | TX+ |
| 2 | TXN | TX- |
| 3 | RXP | RX+ |
| 4 | NC | PoE+ or PoE- |
| 5 | NC | PoE+ or PoE- |
| 6 | RXN | RX- |
| 7 | NC | PoE- or PoE+ |
| 8 | NC | PoE- or PoE+ |
- PoE is only available on models that support it.
- When using PoE, the polarity of pins 4,5 and 7,8 must be different.
- If pin 4,5 is +, then pin 7,8 is -, or if pin 4,5 is -, then pin 7,8 is +.
