How to turn off PoE on GS308PP and GS305PP switches
This is about the GS308PP (and GS305PP), not GS308P, but the form did not have GS308PP to select. Unde the Selection Location field on the form, it defaulted to Nighthawk WiFi Routers. This is n...
Thank you schumaku for your reply.
I plug my iPhone and iPad into my GS308PP switch, via Belkin's Ethernet PoE adapter. Whenever I need internet, I plug in my device to the switch, which is most of the time. (I don't like using Wi-Fi because of the health risks.) This means I'm charging my devices most of them. But recently, my iPhone screen bulged outwards because the battery swelled. Apple told me that I should not be charging my devices all the time and that I should let it discharge to 20%. So, I was wondering how I can turn off the PoE once in a while. Is this a possibility?
Again, not with such a non-manageable PoE switch.
What I don't know however is if these PoE adapters continue working without PoE power. This is something you need bro figure out with the vendor. Or try this: If the adapters work (mobile device powered) while connected to a non-PoE LAN port, for example direct on your router you know that looking for a PoE switch allowing PoE scheduling (but not bringing down the Ethernet ports!) can be considered.
