Installing the Switch Sample Network Topologies for PWR Switches Sample Network Topologies for PWR Switches This section shows a few sample network topologies implementing the Series 2600-PWR Switches. For more topology information, see the ProCurve networking products Web site, http://www.procurve.com. As a Desktop Switch Implementing PoE 600 RPS/EPS Twisted-pair straight-through or crossover cables 2650-PWR Server Installing the Switch Wireless Access Point IP Telephones PCs and peripherals The Series 2600-PWR Switches are also designed to be used as desktop switches to which end nodes, printers and other peripherals, and servers are directly connected, as shown in the above illustration. Except now these switches can supply PoE power to end devices such as IP telephones and wireless access points (WAP). As shown in the above illustration the IP telephones can be connected in line, that is, between the switch and the end device, in this case a PC. The IP telephones have two ports, one in and one out. Therefore the phone receives voice and power from the switch and the PC can send and receive data through the phone to the switch. The end node devices are connected to the switch by straight-through or crossover twisted-pair cables. Either cable type can be used because of the "HP Auto-MDIX" and "IEEE Auto MDI/MDI-X" features on the Series 2600PWR Switches. 2-36
